Can i compound this to one building?

[Dennisans]

a=1
for i in range(40):
    b=i/8
    box(width=10-b,length=6, height=1, pos=vec(0,a-30,b/2))
    a=a+1

So I made this shape, and i gotta make it to one building. How can I use compound to this shape?

The key to making a compound object is to put the individual objects into a list, then give that list to the compound function:

boxes = []

for i in range(40):
    b=i/8

    boxes.append(  box(width=10-b,length=6, height=1, pos=vec(0,i+1-30,b/2))  )
building = compound(boxes)

Note that you don't need to create a variable a that starts at 1; the quantity i+1 is the same as your a.
