vvvv Spreads

What Are Spreads

Spread<T> is vvvv's immutable collection type, conceptually similar to ImmutableArray<T>. Nodes return collections as Spread<T>; they never take Spread<T> as an input type (see Collection Inputs).

Key properties:

• Immutable — never modify in place, always create new spreads
• Value semantics — two spreads with same elements are considered equal
• Cyclic indexing — in visual patches, indexing wraps around (not in C# API)
• Never null — use Spread<T>.Empty instead of null
