A **convex polytope** is a mathematical object that generalizes the concept of polygons and polyhedra to higher dimensions. More formally, a convex polytope can be defined in several ways, including: 1. **Geometrically:** A convex polytope is a bounded subset of Euclidean space that is convex, meaning that for any two points within the polytope, the line segment connecting them is also contained within the polytope.
