It doesn't have to be understood to be admired.
Not much to admire, but i might as well explain it.
This actually represents a (the only) solution of a complex constraint system . It's when you take a group of different entities, with a number of constraints between them, and try to come up with an arrangement that will satisfy all constraints and keep the system in equilibrium.
It is not always possible to find such an arrangement. A constraint system can have the following states:
- Underconstrained. This means that the constraints are not enough to dictate a specific solution so there are more than one solutions to choose from.
- Well constrained. This means that the number and type of constraints in the system are exactly those needed to achieve equilibrium, not more, not less.
-Overconstrained. This means that there are more constraints than are required or necessary for equilibrium. Two subcategories:
--Consistent. The extra constraints don't really matter, because they are in agreement with the other constraints.
--Conflicting. This is where the problems begin. The additional constraints are in conflict with the rest of them. In order for a solution to be found, some constraints need to either be removed, or changed.
Solving such constraint systems and finding equilibrium arrangements is what i do. Sometimes i succeed, sometimes i fail. It's never easy, but i am supposed to be good at it.
the post and the explanation are simply SUBLIME!
thank you!
I couldn't agree more.
