Abstract

In Chapter 18 we recall how to construct Archimedean solids via transformations of Platonic solids (Section 18.1), and we present programs (Section 18.2) to plot them by coordinates of vertices (in a way that is similar to programs for the Platonic solids but with some additional calculations and also difficult preparatory work with the lists of vertices in the faces).
