Squircle, the superellipse for n = 4, a = b = 1, approximates a chamfered square. | | Squircle | chamfered | square | Cartesian coordinate system | ellipse | rectangles | rhombus | parabola | n-norm | n = 3⁄2, a = b = 1 produces a rounder shape that somewhat resembles a chamfered square. | | n = 1⁄2, a = b = 1 produces a four-pointed star.
