A line of three[citation needed] is a three cell leading edge on an object or part of object.

A line of three consecutive cells can be a segment known as "line" in certain still lifes; the most basic of these being integral sign but can also be used to connect any number of pre-blocks, tubs, beehives, loaves, mangoes, hooks, claws, etc. together. One example is boat line hook.
