To the best of my knowledge there is no known formula even for the simpler case of fitting squares inside a circle (as this webpage suggests what is known are only ad hoc solutions for specific numbers of squares). | |
| May 1, 2019 at 22:07 | comment | added | CommaToast | OK great but what is the actual formula to determine the total number n of cubes that can fit inside a sphere of radius r? Your answer does not give such a general answer, probably why it wasn’t accepted. Since duplicates of this question are being shut down, I dare not re-ask it, but I really need to figure out a generalized answer. Can you help? | |
