is not a square, he is a cube! Ditto the other three who are also three dimensional, not two dimensional shapes.

Ha Ha Ha. This made me laugh out loud in the office.

Well he's not really because his sides aren't all the same length.

Or am I confused about what constitutes a cube?

Actually Norfolk you're right. The two guys at the end are in fact cuboids. The circle-pretender is a cylinder. And the triangly guy is erm.... a toblerone segment.

X-post. The name for a 3D triangle is going to annoy me now.

MrsChemist I found it! It's a prism,which I ought to have known, seeing as I am an optometrist.
