Is a corner with an angle of 180 degrees a corner? If yes, then all shapes have infinite corners and infinite edges.

Could be a square in a two dimensional space with different rules.

Does this even meet the criteria for "a shape"? I'd have thought you need to be able to travel from any point within the shape to any other point, without crossing a line.

Wat. There are three sides my dudes. What am I missing?

The almost-circle thingy is one side, which is touching the two straight lines, which are joined by another circular segment at the rightmost part. That makes four sides.

The 90 degree angles are supposed to be on the inside. Which in this case would mean at least the same side. Otherwise the 360 degree rule is broken and it's not a rectangle, much less a square.
