%N Number of chiral pairs of colorings of the 96 edges (or triangular faces) of the 4-D 24-cell using subsets of a set of n colors.
%C Each member of a chiral pair is a reflection but not a rotation of the other. The Schläfli symbol of the 24-cell is {3,4,3}. It has 24 octahedral facets. It is self-dual.
