    The maximal number of face turns needed to solve any instance of the Rubik's Cube is 20, [2] and the maximal number of quarter turns is 26. [3] These numbers are also the diameters of the corresponding Cayley graphs of the Rubik's Cube group. In STM (slice turn metric) the minimal number of turns is unknown, lower bound being 18 and upper bound ...

  3. Rubik's Revenge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubik's_Revenge

    A solved Rubik's Revenge cube. The Rubik's Revenge (also known as the 4×4×4 Rubik's Cube) is a 4×4×4 version of the Rubik's Cube.It was released in 1981. Invented by Péter Sebestény, the cube was nearly called the Sebestény Cube until a somewhat last-minute decision changed the puzzle's name to attract fans of the original Rubik's Cube. [1]

    The manipulations of the Rubik's Cube form the Rubik's Cube group. The Rubik's Cube group (,) represents the structure of the Rubik's Cube mechanical puzzle.Each element of the set corresponds to a cube move, which is the effect of any sequence of rotations of the cube's faces.

    A less frequently used strategy is to solve one side and one layer first, then the 2nd, 3rd and 4th layer, and finally the last side and layer. This method is referred to as Layer-by-Layer. This resembles CFOP, a well known technique used for the 3x3 Rubik's Cube, with 2 added layers and a couple of centers. [12]

    a) Layer by Layer - In this method, a face with all edges permuted is solved, and then the remaining puzzle is solved by a single algorithm from a set of 5. b) Algorithmic L4E and Intuitive L4E - L4E or last 4 edges is somewhat similar to Layer by Layer. The only difference is that only two edges are solved around three centers. Both of these ...

    Layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition is a thin film fabrication technique. The films are formed by depositing alternating layers of complementary materials with wash steps in between. This can be accomplished by using various techniques such as immersion, spin, spray, electromagnetism, or fluidics. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block-stacking_problem

    The first nine blocks in the solution to the single-wide block-stacking problem with the overhangs indicated. In statics, the block-stacking problem (sometimes known as The Leaning Tower of Lire (Johnson 1955), also the book-stacking problem, or a number of other similar terms) is a puzzle concerning the stacking of blocks at the edge of a table.

    [1] [2] One of the earliest published descriptions of the puzzle appeared in 1826 in the 'Sequel to the Endless Amusement'. [3] Many other references of the cross puzzle can be found in amusement, puzzle and magicians books throughout the 19th century. [4] The T puzzle is based on the cross puzzle, but without head and has therefore only four ...
