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).
The Cube is a puzzle video game both developed and published by British [1] studio Funbox Media. Based on the British game show of the same name, the game released on November 16, 2012, worldwide, for the Nintendo 3DS, the PlayStation 3, and Wii. The game also released on the Nintendo Switch on December 2, 2022.
for the 4-cube is rotations of a 3-polytope (cube) in 3-space = 6×4 = 24, for the 3-cube is rotations of a 2-polytope (square) in 2-space = 4; for the 2-cube is rotations of a 1-polytope in 1-space = 1; In other words, the 2D puzzle cannot be scrambled at all if the same restrictions are placed on the moves as for the real 3D puzzle.
The game then follows by asking the person to place and describe a cube in the scene. Once the cube is completely described, the narrator of the game then asks for the player to describe a ladder that is also placed in the scene. This process continues with foliage and/or flowers, a horse, and finally, a storm.
Here, edges E 11 and E 12 are adjacent on tile T 1, and so are edges E 21 and E 22 on tile T 2 but in opposite order. See the figure below for an example, where E 11 is the East edge of the yellow tile, E 21 is the West edge of the red tile, and both E 21 and E 22 are the North edges.
To facilitate discussion of match play strategy, scores are "normalised", i.e. referred to in terms of the number of points each player is away from victory. For example, if a player is leading 3-2 in a 5 point match, this is referred to as "2-away, 3-away" or "-2, -3"; likewise if a player leads 13-12 in a 15 point match.
A top left corner quadrant marking is equivalent to a numerical marking 1, second quadrant to 2, third quadrant to 3, and fourth quadrant to 4. The following image illustrates these different forms of marking. Because transfer of cubies between orbits is impossible, the same 1-2-3-4 markings can be used for each orbit.
Unlike many other nimber related games, the number of spaces between the two tokens on each row are the sizes of the Nim heaps. If your opponent increases the number of spaces between two tokens, just decrease it on your next move. Else, play the game of Nim and make the Nim-sum of the number of spaces between the tokens on each row be 0. [3]
