In this video I show how to write the OpenSees basic truss example using a series of functions in Python. I also overview some of the benefits functions can have if we're trying to create OpenSees models.
It's not the most exciting topic, but in the long run this will save you a lot of hassle.
Let me know if this was clear. I'm thinking about trying to showcase the final product at the start of the video you can know where I'm going.
