. We're sorry about the hassle.
∣ x ∣ + ∣ y ∣ + ∣ z ∣ ⇒ the shape will be symmetric w.r.t. all 8 octant. So if we could find the part of it in one octant, we'll be able to easily deduce whole shape.
The most easy part to consider is that in 1 st octant, which is x + y + z = 3 which is plane passing through ( 1 , 1 , 1 ) and perpendicular to vector i ^ + j ^ + k ^ . This when reflected in other octant gives shape of octahedron.
