The 4-, 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, and 9-faced polyhedra are colored red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo respectively. The 10-, 11-, and 12-faced polyhedra, which are not visible on the surface and are shown together, are colored violet, white, black.
FORMULA
Sum of row n = A347753(n)
EXAMPLE
The single cube, row 1, is internally cut with 14 planes which creates seventy-two 4-faced polyhedra and twenty-four 5-faced polyhedra. See also A333539.
