What does the bpy library do in Blender?
You’re looking at a new scene with a cube located at an x-y-z coordinate of (0, 0, 0). The bpy library is what makes all of the magic happen.

How are displacement nodes connected in Blender to material output?
To create displacement, connect a Displacement or Vector Displacement node to the displacement input of the Material Output node. Procedural, painted or baked textures can then be connected to these nodes. Three displacement methods exist, with varying accuracy, performance and memory usage.
Why does bump mapping cause artifacts in Blender?
Because bump mapping is a fake effect, it can cause artifacts if the actual shape of the geometry is too different from the bump mapped shape. If this happens the strength of bump mapping should be reduced or actual displacement should be used.
