GET

## Name

get — Used to retrieve parameter values of database objects.

## Synopsis

`get` {`object_name_pattern`} [`param_name`]

## DESCRIPTION

Low level command for extracting specific parameter information from geometry objects in a database. Similar to "attr get" except that the focus of this command is on geometric parameter values (vertices, for example) instead of attribute metadata.

## EXAMPLES

Example 1. Elliptical Torus 'r' parameter extraction

Use the get command to extract the r parameter value from an elliptical torus.

`mged>` `make eto.s eto` `mged>` `l eto.s`

eto.s: Elliptical Torus (ETO)
V (0, 0, 0)
N=(0, 0, 1)
C=(200, 0, 200) mag=282.843
r=800
d=100

`mged>` `get eto.s r`

800
