[edit] Polytopes

I'd assume this terminology can apply to polyhedrons and polytopes? Like a tetrahedron has a 0-skeleton as 4 points in space, a 1-skeleton as a 4 vertex, 6 edge complete graph, and 2-skeleton having the 4 faces. In general an n-skeleton of a polytope being composed of the n-faces of it?
Partly I ask, having added a bunch of uncreated links: vertex arrangement, edge arrangement, face arrangement for different polytopes which share the same lower dimensional components. See Uniform polyhedron for examples. (Example cubohemioctahedron and cuboctahedron share the same edge arrangement or 1-skeleton). Tom Ruen 20:38, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
