This advanced technique developed by Jessica Fridrich divides the puzzle into layers and you have to solve the cube layer by layer using algorithms in each step, not messing up the pieces already in place.

Our goal is to form a cross at the bottom of the Rubik's Cube in a way that the sides of the white edges match the lateral centre pieces. Experienced cubers foresee the steps when they inspect the cube …

In the advanced Fridrich method we're going to pair them in the top layer, then insert them where they belong. The simple example below demonstrates a lucky situation where the red-blue edge piece …

Steps of the Fridrich Rubik's Cube Method: 1. White cross 2. First two layers (F2L) 3. Orient last layer (OLL) 4. Permute last layer (PLL)

There is a beginner version of the CFOP method which minimizes algorithms as much as possible. It is popular due to its logical progression, despite being fairly challenging at times.

While solving the Rubik's Cube with the advanced Fridrich method, when the first two layers (F2L) are solved we need to orient the last layer (OLL) so the upper face of the Rubik's Cube is all yellow.

People usually get stuck solving the cube after completing the first face, after that they need some help. In the following article I'm going to show you the easiest way to solve the cube using the beginner's …

⯀ If you have a scrambled Rubik's Cube first calculate the solution with the online solver, then try to learn the beginner's solution and then master the advanced method.

Jessica Fridrich, who placed 10 th in the competition with a best solve of 29.11, developed the method used by most speedcubers to date – CFOP. CFOP is an acronym for Cross, F2L, OLL, PLL, each …

Mathematically the Rubik's Cube is a permutation group: an ordered list, with 54 fields with 6*9 values (colours) on which we can apply operations (basic face rotations, cube turns and the combinations of …
