  2. CFOP method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFOP_method

    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.

    A Rubik's Cube is in the superflip pattern when each corner piece is in the correct position, but each edge piece is incorrectly oriented. [9] In 1992, a solution for the superflip with 20 face turns was found by Dik T. Winter , of which the minimality was shown in 1995 by Michael Reid , providing a new lower bound for the diameter of the cube ...

    Philip Marshall's The Ultimate Solution to Rubik's Cube takes a different approach, averaging only 65 twists yet requiring the memorisation of only two algorithms. The cross is solved first, followed by the remaining edges (using the Edge Piece Series FR'F'R), then five corners (using the Corner Piece Series URU'L'UR'U'L, which is the same as ...

    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.
