In eight-dimensional geometry, a cantic 8-cube or truncated 8-demicube is a uniform 8-polytope, being a truncation of the 8-demicube.

Alternate names

Truncated demiocteract

Truncated hemiocteract (Jonathan Bowers)

Cantic 8-cube

Cartesian coordinates

The Cartesian coordinates for the vertices of a truncated 8-demicube centered at the origin and edge length 6√2 are coordinate permutations: (±1,±1,±3,±3,±3,±3,±3,±3) with an odd number of plus signs.
