Gridding determines a dissection of the layout canvas into some number of rows (**n_rows**) and some number of columns (**n_cols**) of _gridcells_.
The choice of **n_rows** and **n_cols** is made **once** for each design. Once the dimensions **(n_rows, n_cols)** have been chosen, their values define a gridded canvas, or _grid_, and remain fixed throughout Circuit Training for the given design. The detailed algorithm is shown as following.

The gridding algorithm starts with the dimensions **canvas_width** and **canvas_height** of the layout canvas, as well as a list of **macros**, where each macro has a width and a height.
Macros are not rotatable. The area of a macro is the product of its width and height.

the number of empty _gridcells_ over the total number of _gridcells_ (**n_rows** * **n_cols**).
A _gridcell_ is claimed as an empty _gridcell_ if the intersection area of placed macros with it is less than 0.00001 times its area.
Next we calculate the **hor_waste** and **ver_waste** as described in following algorithm.

To calculate horizontal waste **hor_waste**, we calculate
- **width_tot_macros** = the sum of widths of all macros in the design
