= Overview =
[[ConnectedCloud]] grows a cloud of objects that are "connected" through single-linkage clustering. Two objects are "connected" if they are within the user-defined cutoff, radius. It starts with a selection, and grows until no more objects are withing ''radius'' Angstroms of the cloud.

Let's say we want to find the cloud of docking guesses (blue lines) that are connected to the lowest energy docking pose (red sticks). I call,
<source lang="python">
connectedCloud lig1, lig*, radius=1, doPrint=True
</source>
and get
<gallery heights=250px widths=250px>
Image:ConnectedCloud.png|Find the cloud growing from the red sticks. Consider all blue lines for inclusion.
Image:ConnectedCloud2.png|Those in the cloud are shown in red. Notice the small blue cloud above the red was not selected. At no point were those atoms close enough to the currently growing cloud, to be considered.
</gallery>

= Syntax =
<source lang="python">
connectedCloud origSel, subSel, [radius=1, [doPrint=True]]
</source>
* origSel -- the original selection to grow from
* subSel -- only consider these objects when growing
* radius -- defines "connectedness". Anything <= radius Angstroms from the growing cloud and in subSel is considered
* doPrint -- print some misc. info

= Examples =
<source lang="python">
# Find all objects in the set "lig*" (all ligands from a docking run, for example) that are
# in the connected cloud of "connectedness" set to 1 Ang. Print the number of atoms in the
# selection and the surface area of the selection (if it were an object).
connectedCloud lig427, lig*, radius=1, doPrint=True

# select everything within 0.85 of lig2467 and don't print anything
connectedCloud lig2467, *, radius=0.85, doPrint=False
</source>

= The Code =
<source lang="python" enclose="pre">
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
def connectedCloud( origSel, subSel, radius=1, doPrint=True ):
"""
connectedCloud -- find all atoms, by object in subSel connected to
origSel by radius Ang. In other words, start from origSel
and find all objects <=radius Ang. from it & add that to the
result. Once nothing more is added, you have your cloud of
points.

origSel,
the selection around which we start expanding.

subSel,
the subset of objects to consider

radius,
the maximum radius in which to consider; anything >radius
Ang. from any objet in the current selection is ignored (unless
it is added later by some other path).

doPrint
print some values before returning the selection name
