A "miracle octad generator" is an array of coordinates, arranged in four rows and six columns, that is capable of describing any point in 24-dimensional space and is a tool for studying complex symmetries.

Also contains an important paper on Generalized Derangement Problem: "Derangements and Laguerre polynomials" by S. Even and J. Gillis; pp. 135–143.
