>>404619 Time CAN be a 4th dimension. But there's no set order, really, nor does time pertain to discussing hypercubes mathematically. All a hypercube is is the idea that, as you add more dimensions to things, you keep the new dimensions perpendicular to the previous ones. So a line segment represents 1 dimension. Square it and you have two segments coming out of each vertice. Square it again (for a cube) and you have three segments coming out of each vertice. Square the cube and you have four segments coming out of each vertice. But the trick then comes in trying to figure out how the extra segments coming out of each vertice are still perpendicular to all the previous dimensions' segments. At best we can "see" a shadow of what it actually is. But trying to represent it visually will always be inaccurate.
