10th Dimension? Hey... does anyone out there know a real quick and easy way to slice a 10 dimensional hypercube on some sort of diagonal? Like, if I had a regular cube (specifically a 3d matrix), I could cut it from top left front corner to bottom right back corner, and get two halves. Each half could then be divided by parallel planes or whatever, the first cut is the hard part.
I can handle 3d, because I can draw it on paper. I'm a little lost doing the same in 10d... although, at this point, I would really settle for dividing a 6d hypercube...

Actually, I found a realy cheap way of doing it (I'm not sure it's optimal, but it works for the moment):
I just considered the first 3 dimensions, thus making it a cube. The other 7 dimensions were ignored (at least for the purposes of dividing out the space).
Somehow, this works. :-)
