Net (polytope)
Tetrahedron-centered perspective projection into 3D space, with nearest tetrahedron to the 4D viewpoint rendered in red, and the 4 surrounding octahedra in green. Cells lying on the far side of the polytope have been culled for clarity (although they can be discerned from the edge outlines). The rotation is only of the 3D projection image, in order to show its structure, not a rotation in 4D space.

Famous quotes containing the word images:

    Style a tablet at every noon time, Lady,
    With bold images of a timid boy!
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    We picked each other from afar and knew
    What hour of terror comes to test the soul,
    And in that terror’s name obeyed the call,
    And understood, what none have understood,
    Those images that waken in the blood.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    A child’s self-image is more like a scrapbook than a single snapshot. As the child matures, the number and variety of images in that scrapbook may be far more important than any individual picture pasted inside it.
    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
