Examples

The Examples section demonstrates how to apply the CalcTree API to automate and streamline engineering calculations using practical Python scripts.

This section provides practical examples of how to use the CalcTree API for common calculation workflows.

Each example includes:

  • A description of the scenario

  • A Python code example demonstrating how to implement it

Examples are designed to be adaptable to typical engineering tasks, such as automating design checks, bulk parameter studies, and batch reporting.
