About polytopes

Wikipedia page Uniform 4-polytope includes a nice explanation. The name of polytopes in "**-cell series" in this app are based on Coxeter diagrams. 0 in this app corresponds to ● in the Coxeter diagram and 1 corresponds to ◉. Thus, for example, 0101 in this app corresponds to Coxeter diagram ●－◉－●－◉. "Snub" in this app corresponds to ◯－◯－◯－◯.
