The Soma cube is a mathematical puzzle by Piet Hein.
- This text is from the 'Tetromino' article, and is being edited
The soma pieces are:
- T: a row of three blocks with one added below the center
- L: a row of three blocks with one added below the left side
- S: bent trimino with block placed on outside of clockwise side
- Z: bent trimino with block added on outside of anticlockwise side
Reflection to S. See "J", above.
When added the third dimension, there are three more patterns, all created by placing a unit cube on the bent trimino:
- Left screw: unit cube placed on top of anticlockwise side. Chiral in 3D.
- Right screw: unit cube placed on top of clockwise side. Chiral in 3D.
- Branch: unit cube placed on bend. Not chiral in 3D.
