Notation

[edit]

There are two notations used in this article, $C(n,d)$ and $\Delta(n,d)$. This should be unified. I see $C_d(n)$ quite often in literature. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.12.71.178 (talk) 12:17, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nonstandard notation for rounding

[edit]

In the section "Number of faces", the article uses square brackets to denote (presumably) the "floor" operation (rounding down to the nearest integer). This is nonstandard. The article should use the usual "floor" and/or "ceiling" math symbols. Gabn1 (talk) 08:16, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It is standard, actually, but less common than the floor symbols. I agree it should be replaced. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:02, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Number of facets

[edit]

There is an important explicit formula for the number of facets. I think it should be given. Gabn1 (talk) 03:01, 28 May 2017 (UTC) Gabn1 (talk) 03:01, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
