%%Each object definition is parameterized by
%%an instance identification.

%%All polyhedra are normalized (centered on the origin and inscriptible
%%in a sphere of radius 1). 

%%The polyhedra are defined with a certain number of points and faces.
%%The points comprise both the vertices and the center of the object.

%%It might be useful to remind the Euler formula linking 
%%the number of faces $f$,
%%vertices $v$ and edges $e$ in polyhedra with no hole in dimension 3:
%%$f+v-e=2$. This can be verified in the following table:

%%\centerline{\vbox{\halign{\quad#\hfil\quad&&\quad\hfil#\quad\cr

%% The angle $\alpha$ is defined by the following conditions:
