Description

This is a generator that helps you create various regular polyhedra, including Platonic solids, Archimedean solids, and Catalan solids.

 

1、Platonic solids:is a convex, regular polyhedron in three-dimensional Euclidean space. Being a regular polyhedron means that the faces are congruent (identical in shape and size) regular polygons (all angles congruent and all edges congruent), and the same number of faces meet at each vertex. There are only five such polyhedra.

2、Archimedean solids:are a set of thirteen convex polyhedra whose faces are regular polygons and are vertex-transitive, although they are not face-transitive.

3、Catalan solids:are the dual polyhedra of Archimedean solids. The Archimedean solids are thirteen highly-symmetric polyhedra with regular faces and symmetric vertices.The faces of the Catalan solids correspond by duality to the vertices of Archimedean solids, and vice versa.
