An Introduction to Maya Embedded Language (MEL)

The Maya Embedded Language (MEL) is a scripting language which is developed by Autodesk’s for 3D Graphics Software Maya. Using MED You will be able to design the 3D object very clearly and accurately. (scripts : programs written for a special run-time  environment).

Why Learn MEL ? : To gain more accuracy in 3D graphics.

Lets Understand the Basic program of MEL:

1. Write a program to print “hello” in Maya embedded language.

Program-

print (“hello“);

Or

print “hello“;

Output-

hello

2. Write a program to Print “Cube” In geometry. (A cube is a three-dimensional solid object).

Program-

polyCube;

Output-

Polygon Cube

3. Write a program to print polygon sphere in Geometry. ( In sphere the surface is divided by great arcs into bounded regions)

Program-

polySphere;

Output-

Polygon Sphere

I want to mention you one more things that if you want to add more animation to your video using MAYA you have good command on Maya embedded language that is also known as MEL in short.
