Each column in the sign table below concisely defines a 3-dimensional cross product in 8 dimensions. Column s01 is the baseline function, which uses the permutation designated p01.

In all, the table contains 32 functions. The green and red colorations serve only to make the rows and columns easier to follow.

Here is an example of what happens if the sign of a basis element is changed throughout the table. If +U0 is exchanged with −U0, then s01 becomes s31, and vice versa. Other functions are similarly swapped:

s01 ↔ s31s02 ↔ s32s03 ↔ s29s04 ↔ 30
s05 ↔ s27s06 ↔ s28s07 ↔ s25s08 ↔ 26
s09 ↔ s23s10 ↔ s24s11 ↔ s21s12 ↔ 22
s13 ↔ s19s14 ↔ s20s15 ↔ s17s16 ↔ 18

Similar exchanges occur if any other basis element is negated.
