Symmetry
Cells can be shown in two different symmetries. The linear Coxeter-Dynkin diagram form has two colors of truncated cuboctahedra. The symmetry can be doubled by relating the first and last branches of the Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, which can been shown with one colored truncated cuboctahedral cells.

Famous quotes containing the word symmetry:
“What makes a regiment of soldiers a more noble object of view than the same mass of mob? Their arms, their dresses, their banners, and the art and artificial symmetry of their position and movements.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
