cuboids
Three-dimensional rectangles
Cuboids are three-dimensional rectangular shapes—boxes where all angles are right angles but not all sides are equal length.
In anatomy, the cuboid is a bone on the outer side of the foot, roughly cube-shaped.
The adjective cuboid describes anything resembling a cube: a cuboid structure, cuboid cells.
