facesAsPolyhedra -- Returns the faces of a polyhedron as actual polyhedra.

Usage:

fP = facesAsPolyhedra(n,P)
Inputs:
- P, a convex polyhedron,
- n, an integer, codimension of the faces
Outputs:
- fP, a list,

Description

While faces returns a list of lists of indices for the vertices that make up the codimension n faces, this gives a list of actual polyhedra. It is just a small wrapper around faces. Whenever possible, use faces instead.
