Dynamo Diary 2.0 Parametric Brick Wall Pattern

Another Dynamo for Revit exercise with inspiration from an Indian architect's project : Boys Hostel by Zero Energy Design Lab. Pic from Archdaily: https://www.archdaily.com/900280/boys-hostel-block-zero-energy-design-lab

The aim is to create the brick pattern as shown i.e. a flemish bond pattern with the number of headers poping out from brick wall and gradually decreasing towards ground level.
Definition codings as shown above. Overall idea: Generate a grid of points representing the normal flemish bond brick wall; Randomly selecting headers points to pop out from the plane; Insert adaptive component - the brick family by points; Extracting model information from Dynamo and reload to Excel for project management.
There are a couple of parameter inputs in the definition : to control the extent of pattern; to control the intensity of pattern; to control different pattern options; to control the direction of pattern (flip control).
Option 1: First outcome.
Option 2: Pattern iteration based on Option 1.
Option 3: Flip over.
Option 4 : Brick pattern intensity control.
Option 5 :  Area control.
Model information extracted from Dynamo and schedule in Revit.
