What does this mean? --Galoomba (talk) 16:45, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- if by this it means oblique (as in "not lying upon a line/edge/plane/[in general, hyperplane] of symmetry of the lattice"), and Muzik considers only the axes' (all-different) absolute values, it is just a permutation of indexes (when sorted by absolute value) with each axis having a sign, so 3!*23.
