# RhinoNurbsCurve

class compas_rhino.geometry.RhinoNurbsCurve(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: NurbsCurve, RhinoCurve

Class representing a NURBS curve based on the NurbsCurve of Rhino.Geometry.

Parameters

name (str, optional) – Name of the curve.

Attributes
• points (list[Point], read-only) – The control points of the curve.

• weights (list[float], read-only) – The weights of the control points.

• knots (list[float], read-only) – The knot vector, without duplicates.

• multiplicities (list[int], read-only) – The multiplicities of the knots in the knot vector.

• knotsequence (list[float], read-only) – The knot vector, with repeating values according to the multiplicities.

• continuity (int, read-only) – The degree of continuity of the curve.

• degree (int, read-only) – The degree of the curve.

• order (int, read-only) – The order of the curve (degree + 1).

• is_rational (bool, read-only) – True is the curve is rational.
