%N A374624 a(n) is the number of irreducible finite Coxeter groups in n dimensions, or -1 if there are an infinite number.
%C A374624 For n > 8, the Coxeter groups are exactly A(n), B(n) = C(n), and D(n), hence a(n) = 3.

%e A374624 For n = 4, there are five finite groups, denoted A(4) (symmetry group of the simplex), B(4) (= C(4)) (symmetry group of the tesseract and the 4-dimensional cross polytope), D(4) (symmetry group of the demitesseract), F(4) (symmetry group of the 24-cell) and H(4) (symmetry group of the 120-cell and the 600-cell).
