A prism is a polyhedron formed by extruding any polygon. The polygon used in forming the prism is called the base of the prism.
In CSG notation, if x represents the base, then:
- if x is biframe,
- xE represents the corresponding triframe prism
- xH represents the corresponding biframe prism
- if x is monoframe,
- xE represents the corresponding uncapped prism
- xH represents the corresponding monoframe prism
- if x is nullframe, xE and xH represent unnamed shapes.
