Platonic solid graph generator creates algorithmically graphs for simple geometrical objects known as Platonic solids. Platonic solids are
- Tetrahedron
- Cube
- Octahedron
- Dodecahedron
- Icosahedron
Generator starts with File > Generators > Platonic solid graph generator.... Generator creates a topic for each vertex and connects the vertex topic to other vertex topics sharing an edge. You may think the generated topic maps as graph abstractions of real geometrical objects. Vertex topics are given a base name
<object> Vextex <n>
where <object> is Tetrahedron, Cube, Octahedron, Dodecahedron, or Icosahedron. and <n> is a number of the vertex. First vertex gets number 0. For example Cube Vertex 5 is a base name for cube's last vertex point.
Similarly each vertex topic is given a subject identifier
http://www.wandora.org/<object>/vertex<n>
where <object> is lower case name of the object and <n> a number of vertex.
Vertexes are connected with edge associations. Association type's base name and subject identifiers are
<object>Edge http://www.wandora.org/<object>/edge
Association roles are
<object> Role 1 http://www.wandora.org/<object>/role1
<object> Role 2 http://www.wandora.org/<object>/role2
