Hi,
I'm following a tutorial in Spanish: https://vimeo.com/146931010 [vimeo.com]
I don't speak or understand Spanish, but I'm kind of following along by watching what he's doing.
He puts down a Divide Node around 4:33 into the tutorial and checks the Compute Dual option.
I looked that up and it says: Convert the polyhedron into its point/face dual.
I have NO clue what that even means. How does anyone ever understand this stuff?
Can someone help me out with understanding this?
Thanks,
Jim

A polyhedron is a three-dimensional solid figure in which each side is a flat surface. These flat surfaces are polygons and are joined at their edges
