%N Number of 3-dimensional polyominoes (or polycubes) with n cells.

%C Here two polycubes that differ by reflection are considered different. - _Joerg Arndt_, Apr 26 2023

%C Number of oriented polyominoes with n cubical cells of the regular tiling with Schläfli symbol {4,3,4}. For oriented polyominoes, chiral pairs are counted as two. - _Robert A. Russell_, Mar 21 2024
