%N Centered icositetrachoral numbers.

%C A icositetrachoral number is a centered figurate number that represents a icositetrachoron, which is a four-dimensional regular polytope composed of 24 cells.

%C One of the 6 centered regular polichoral (centered pentachoral, centered hexadecachoral, centered octachoral, centered icositetrachoral, centered hexacosichoral and centered hecatonicosachoral) numbers.
