Polyhedron

class compas.geometry.Polyhedron

Bases: Geometry

A polyhedron is a geometric object defined by its vertices and faces.

Parameters:

verticeslist[[float, float, float] | compas.geometry.Point]

The point locations of the vertices of the polyhedron.

faceslist[list[int]]

The faces as a list of index lists.

namestr, optional

The name of the polyhedron.

Attributes:

verticeslist[list[float]]

The XYZ coordinates of the vertices of the polyhedron.

faceslist[list[int]]

The faces of the polyhedron defined as lists of vertex indices.

edgeslist[tuple[int, int]], read-only

The edges of the polyhedron as vertex index pairs.
