In this project I tried to generative spheres as a flower. The first one is radiative and screw shape, the second is use 3 loops to create a flower cluster. I did the second one from make a difference of two sphere as a petal and route them as a flower.I think OpenSCAD is a great tools to do iterative 3D modeling works. It makes maths beautiful. But The second one really ran slow on my mac, it takes long time to render the work, I guess this is the crucial  weakness of the software.
