Thx Adrian. That helps A LOT!:) I had encountered the concept of the "canonical polyhedron", but this matter, and your mention, prompted me to look into it more deeply. Makes sense now:) Thx for the Antiprism code. Pretty cool little command-line gem, eh? Perhaps you've used it before? Anyhow, it ge...

OK, here are the duals from Antiprism, & Stella4D. I think they used the same method, and same settings (maybe; at least results looks pretty similar. I would really like to know what makes a "proper" dual. Perhaps one does't have to fit snuggly inside/outside the other, but they certainly do for th...

OK, I have done a bit more research on the "polar reciprocal" (i.e. "dual") and algorithms... Antiprism documentation gives a very good explanation of the dual, and provides pseudo-code for computing it, along with variations regarding choice of the center of reciprocity. Also. found excellent textb...
