hypercube
Cube's higher-dimensional analog
A hypercube is a geometric figure that extends the concept of a square and cube into higher dimensions.
A square is two-dimensional, a cube three-dimensional, and a hypercube (or tesseract) four-dimensional.
Though impossible to visualize directly, hypercubes appear in mathematics, theoretical physics, and computer science: The data structure was organized as a hypercube.
