Rubik's Cube Algorithms

Enter an algorithm using the standard notation:

• Inverse:

  To reverse a Rubik’s Cube algorithm, perform the same moves in reverse order, changing each move to its opposite direction (e.g. R becomes R′).

• Rotate x:

  As seen from the bottom of the cube. / Rotating on the x-axis spins the cube like turning the R face clockwise, shifting the front to the top.

• Rotate y:

  As seen from the right side of the cube. / Rotating on the y-axis spins the cube like turning the U face clockwise, moving the front to the right.

• Rotate z:

  As seen with my head tilted to the left. / Rotating on the z-axis turns the cube as if twisting the F face clockwise, shifting the top to the right.

• Mirror L-R:

  Mirroring left-to-right flips the algorithm across a vertical plane, swapping L with R and reversing their turns.

• Mirror F-B:

  Mirroring front-to-back reflects the moves across a depth plane, switching F with B and inverting their turns.

• Mirror U-D:

  Mirroring up-down flips the moves across a horizontal plane, swapping U with D and reversing their rotations.

• Manipulate:

  Use this to apply custom transformations or tweaks to the algorithm as needed for special cases or patterns.
