Use all the resulting planes to cut the polyhedron into individual smaller polyhedra. The sequence lists the number of resulting k-faced polyhedra, where k>=4, for elongated n-bipyramids where 3 <= n <= 5. These three elongated bipyramids are the only possible elongated bipyramids that are Johnson solids, i.e., their faces are all regular polygons. %H A339538 Hyung Taek Ahn and Mikhail Shashkov, <a href="https://cnls.lanl.gov/~shashkov/papers/ahn_geometry.pdf">Geometric Algorithms for 3D Interface Reconstruction</a>. %H A339538 Scott R.
