The convex hull of the positive and negative coordinate unit vectors. Its boundary triangulates a sphere, and each face contains at most one member of each antipodal pair of coordinate unit vectors. This makes its barycentric subdivision useful for triangulating Real projective space.

Examples: square, octahedron.
Take and flip one of 0's to . Therefore has vertices.
