}}26 (twenty-six) is the natural number following 25 and preceding 27. In mathematics 26 is the only integer that is one greater than a square (5{{sup|2}} + 1) and one less than a cube (3{{sup|3}} − 1).[1] A rhombicuboctahedron has twenty-six faces. When a 3 × 3 × 3 cube is made of twenty-seven unit cubes, twenty-six of them are viewable as the exterior layer. There are 26 sporadic groups. The 26-dimensional Lorentzian unimodular lattice II25,1 plays a significant role in sphere packing problems and the classification of finite simple groups. In particular, the Leech lattice is obtained in a simple way as a subquotient. Properties of its positional representation in certain radixes Twenty-six is a repdigit in base three (2223) and in base twelve (2212). In base ten, 26 is the smallest number that is not a palindrome to have a square (262 = 676) that is a palindrome. In science - The atomic number of iron.
