Cube mid-solve on the OLL step. The CFOP method (Cross – F2L (first 2 layers) – OLL (orientate last layer) – PLL (permutate last layer)), also known as the Fridrich method, is one of the most commonly used methods in speedsolving a 3×3×3 Rubik's Cube. It is one of the fastest methods with the other most notable ones being Roux and ZZ.
The method he used is called IDA* and is described in his paper "Finding Optimal Solutions to Rubik's Cube Using Pattern Databases". [19] Korf describes this method as follows IDA* is a depth-first search that looks for increasingly longer solutions in a series of iterations, using a lower-bound heuristic to prune branches once a lower bound on ...
Over a span of years, Gilles Roux developed his own method to solve the 3x3x3 cube. Using a smaller quantity of memorized algorithms than most methods of solving, Roux still found his method to be fast and efficient. The first step of the Roux method is to form a 3×2×1 block. The 3×2×1 block is usually placed in the lower portion of the ...
The Rubik's Cube world champion is 19 years old an can solve it in less than 6 seconds. While you won't get anywhere near his time without some years of practice, solving the cube is really not ...
A speedcubing competition. Speedcubing, also referred to as speedsolving, is a competitive mind sport centered around the rapid solving of various combination puzzles.The most prominent puzzle in this category is the 3×3×3 puzzle, commonly known as the Rubik's Cube.

On April 25, 2015 he set the world record for the fastest 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube single solve with a time of 5.25. He set that time (which was the world record for approximately eight months) using the YuXin brand 3x3 cube. [1] [2] [3] Burns solved the cube 0.3 seconds faster than the previous world record of 5.55 seconds, set by Mats Valk.
A six-year-old girl from China has set a new women’s world record for solving the 3x3x3 Rubik’s Cube in 5.97 seconds. Cao Qixian, of China’s Jiangsu Province, achieved the feat at the Rubik ...
