In geometry, 8 way rotational symmetry indicates that an object looks "the same" when turned to any one of 8 directions.
In computer hardware, 8 way symmetric multiprocessing indicates a computer that has 8 identical CPU cores that are treated interchangeably.
Those 8 cores may in individual chip on the motherboard, or perhaps several cores per chip, or perhaps (such as in the Parallax P8X32 Propeller) all 8 cores are packaged in a single chip.

If it's a regular 8 sided octagon then it rotational symmetry to the order of 8
If it is a regular 8 sided octagon then it will have 8 lines of symmetry
A letter I i.
Yes it does. As long as it has a symmetry without rotation. If you do the rotation either way it does have symmetry. :)
An octagon has 8 lines of reflective symmetry.
