Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Table read by antidiagonals of "less regular type 1" truncated octahedron numbers built from face-centered-cubic sphere packing.

%C The sequence contains regular cuboctahedra (A005902) on the x-axis, regular octahedra (A005900) on the y-axis, and regular truncated octahedra (A005910) on the diagonal. As for the rest, they each have 6 squares of the same area, while the 8 hexagons (of another same area) have 2 side lengths which alternate.

%C The x-axis represents an increasing degree of truncation, while the y-axis represents an increasing quantity of units on the remaining original octahedron edge.
