COMMENTS
Cubes are assumed to be aligned in a 3D grid. Cubes with an exposed edge or corner are not considered enclosed.
The Moore neighborhood of a cube in a 3-D grid consists of the 26 that share a face, an edge, or a vertex with it. - N. J. A. Sloane, Jul 12 2021
EXAMPLE
a(26) = 1 as the number of neighbors in Moore's neighborhood is 26 in 3D.
