  2. Combination puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combination_puzzle

    On a crazy cube type I, they are internally connected in such a way that they essentially move as 8 distinct pieces, not 24. To solve such a cube, think of it as a 2x2x2 (pocket cube) trapped inside a 4x4x4 (Rubik's Revenge). Solve the 2x2x2 first, then solve the 4x4x4 by making exchanges only. Solving the type II is much more difficult.

  3. Pyraminx Duo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyraminx_Duo

    Due to its substantially low number of combinations and its low God's Number, the Pyraminx Duo is a relatively easy puzzle to solve; it has been described as "arguably the easiest non-trivial twisty puzzle". [2] Because of this, cubers usually come up with their own methods of solving the puzzle.

  4. God's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God's_algorithm

    God's algorithm is a notion originating in discussions of ways to solve the Rubik's Cube puzzle, [1] but which can also be applied to other combinatorial puzzles and mathematical games. [2] It refers to any algorithm which produces a solution having the fewest possible moves (i.e., the solver should not require any more than this number).

    Pyraminx in its solved state. The Pyraminx (/ ˈ p ɪ r ə m ɪ ŋ k s /) is a regular tetrahedron puzzle in the style of Rubik's Cube.It was made and patented by Uwe Mèffert after the original 3 layered Rubik's Cube by Ernő Rubik, and introduced by Tomy Toys of Japan (then the 3rd largest toy company in the world) in 1981.

    The cube restricted to only 6 edges, not looking at the corners nor at the other edges. The cube restricted to the other 6 edges. Clearly the number of moves required to solve any of these subproblems is a lower bound for the number of moves needed to solve the entire cube. Given a random cube C, it is solved as iterative deepening. First all ...

    While the method stands alone as an efficient system for solving the Rubik's Cube, many modifications have been made over the years to stay on the cutting edge of competitive speedcubing. Many more algorithms have been added to shave seconds off the solution time, and steps 5+6 or 6+7 are often combined depending on the problems each case presents.
