      This chapter in the book `Some tapas of computer algebra' is a short project containing many exercises, exploring the structure and properties of the Coxeter group of type \(H_3\). This group is given by a certain presentation, and by definition it is also a 3-dimensional reflection group. The first exercises lead from the presentation to the corresponding reflections, after which all the other irreducible complex representations are constructed. Along the way, many useful techniques of computer algebra are applied. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0924.13021].
