The Simple Solution to Rubik's Cube by James G. Nourse is a book that was published in 1981. The book explains how to solve the Rubik's Cube. The book became the best-selling book of 1981, selling 6,680,000 copies that year. It was the fastest-selling title in the 36-year history of Bantam Books.
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 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.
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 ...

Non-human solving: The fastest non-human Rubik's Cube solve was performed by Rubik's Contraption, a robot made by Ben Katz and Jared Di Carlo. A YouTube video shows a 0.38-second solving time using a Nucleo with the min2phase algorithm. [97] Highest order physical n×n×n cube solving: Jeremy Smith solved a 21x21x21 in 95 minutes and 55.52 seconds.
The current record-holder for a standard 3x3x3 cube is 22-year-old Korean American Max Park, who solved the Rubik’s Cube in 3.13 seconds at a competition in Long Beach, California last year ...
A scrambled Rubik's Cube. An algorithm to determine the minimum number of moves to solve Rubik's Cube was published in 1997 by Richard Korf. [10] While it had been known since 1995 that 20 was a lower bound on the number of moves for the solution in the worst case, Tom Rokicki proved in 2010 that no configuration requires more than 20 moves.
