obj selection through phyton shell

[traiano]

viewer = toolutils.sceneViewer()
objsel = viewer.selectObjects("Select objects and press Enter",
        use_existing_selection=False,
        allow_multisel = True,
        quick_select=True,
        allowed_types = ('cam','hlight','null','geo','subnet'))

I can select my geo container node but how do i reach what I have inside the container through the phyton shell?

There is a method for each node called children(). That is how you inspect what is inside.

for node in objsel:
    for n in node.children():
        t = str(n.type())
        print n.name()

children right thank you Atom

this command shows me the texture im using on my material for the geometry:

print hou.node(“./mat/clay”).parm(“basecolor_texture”).eval()

i can change to a new texture:
hou.node(“./mat/clay”).parm(“basecolor_texture”).set(“path_to_the_new_texture”)

I would like to create a dynamic texture in the shell by giving a color and write letters and numbers on it, all inside houdini so i can feed this to a neural network that has to learn. any ideas?
