Orders one for each wall in every room in my tesseract.

# Six rooms in a Tesseract
unless you partition the cubes.

# And each room has 6 sides,
so, 36? Sounds wrong...

Dammit, Tahkcalb! You planned this, didn't you?

# Well he did say wall. So providing you consider
one surface of each room as a ceiling and one as a floor then you're looking at 24.

You'd only need 36 if you've laid it out all Escherish where any surface can be used for whatever you damn well please.

# Hmmm, I always thought it was eight, but I'm no expert on them.
edit: Re-read it. I think it works like; Outside, inside and six off the sides to make eight

# I will think about thhis later when more awake.
Although possibly "when on more drugs" would be more appropriate.

# Of course you're right.
I was picturing a cubic cross and had forgotten it has "arms" in the Z dimension as well.

# Eight, and there is the issue of what is a wall and what is the floor/ceiling in each projection.
All fold back into each other at the terminus points, but are rotated in 3 space. Or so my cats claim. [/;-D
