Prism (EntityClass, 5)
From Hi.gher. Space
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 solid,
- xE represents the corresponding solid prism
- xH represents the corresponding hollow prism
- if x is hollow,
- if x is marked,
- xE represents the corresponding (unknown) prism
- xH represents the corresponding marked prism
