Overview

A library for modelling and manipulating a Rubik's Cube in C#.

Introduction to a Rubik's Cube

A standard 3×3 Rubik’s Cube has 6 faces, each with 9 facelets (3 rows × 3 columns).

Another way of looking at a Rubik's Cube is that it has 26 smaller pieces called cubies.

Facelets vs Cubies

A facelet is just the colored part of a cubie that’s visible on the surface.

That totals 54 facelets across the entire cube. Each facelet is a sticker or tile that shows the cube’s color at that position.

A cubie is the actual physical piece (corner, edge, or center) that makes up the cube.

• Center cubies have 1 facelet.
• Edge cubies have 2 facelets.
• Corner cubies have 3 facelets.
