2D has areas.
3D has volumes.
what are 4D spaces called?
3D has volumes.
what are 4D spaces called?
The discussion revolves around the concept of the fourth dimension in relation to volume, specifically exploring what the equivalent term for four-dimensional spaces is. Participants delve into mathematical terminology and properties associated with higher dimensions.
Participants generally agree on the terminology of "hypervolume" and "hypersphere," but there are varying levels of detail and personal interpretations regarding the implications and applications of these concepts. The discussion remains open with multiple viewpoints on the subject.
Some definitions and mathematical properties are referenced, but the discussion does not resolve all assumptions or clarify the full implications of the terms used in higher-dimensional geometry.
