`MappingAlgorithm`

Last update: 09.03.2026

class Ansys.Mechanical.DataModel.Enums.MappingAlgorithm(*args, **kwds)

Bases: enum.Enum

Create a collection of name/value pairs.

Example enumeration:

>>> class Color(Enum):
...     RED = 1
...     BLUE = 2
...     GREEN = 3

Access them by:

  • attribute access:
    >>> Color.RED
    <Color.RED: 1>
    
  • value lookup:
    >>> Color(1)
    <Color.RED: 1>
    
  • name lookup:
    >>> Color['RED']
    <Color.RED: 1>
    

Enumerations can be iterated over, and know how many members they have:

>>> len(Color)
3
>>> list(Color)
[<Color.RED: 1>, <Color.BLUE: 2>, <Color.GREEN: 3>]

Methods can be added to enumerations, and members can have their own attributes – see the documentation for details.
