Opengl buffers have an index, glsl attribute variables have a name. By default, glsl uses a uniform memory layout called a shared layout shared because once the offsets are defined by the hardware, they are consistently shared between multiple programs.
If divisor is zero, the attribute at slot index advances once per vertex. A glsl program can define new types using the struct keyword. For beginners it takes a little more effort to understand opengl itself, and for professionals, it allows you complete freedom over your matrices. Glslmath has been inspired by the glm and slmath libraries, which aim to mimic glsl, but in contrast to those glslmath does not focus on a complete conforming implementation of glsl. I am implementing a basic phong lighting glsl shader. Data types that are smaller than vec4 consume an entire location and this is where your shader starts to run into issues.

Therefore almost all of its operators are overloaded to perform standard vector and matrix operations as defined in linear algebra. The 2 is 100% not only an int, we are setting a samplercube as an int, so in that case, processing doesnt assign the samplercube as an int, processing uses the 2 as a location to assign the cube map texture to the uniform.

I have looked up some things on the internet, and found that the phong effect was created by adding an ambient, diffuse, and specular layer on the object see image below, from tom dallings site. Normally, opengl allows the glsl compiler considerable leeway to make optimizations. And then either query the program to find out which generic attribute index it put it on, or tell it which one to put it on via glbindattriblocation. Its actually legal to set a value to a location that is 1, but no data will actually be set. A full description of glsl can be found in the literature in the further reading section.
