Learn to solve a 4 by 4 Rubik's Cube.

Video Tutorial of 4 by 4 Rubik's Cube :- https://youtu.be/1xJ-EkQZzZ8?si=GSWEFww3sk8RObhO

 Solving a 4x4 Rubik's Cube, also known as the Rubik's Revenge, is a bit more challenging than solving the standard 3x3 Rubik's Cube. It requires a more advanced method called the reduction method, which involves solving the cube in several stages. Here's a step-by-step guide to solving a 4x4 Rubik's Cube:

  1. 1. Solving the Centers:

    • Start by solving the centers on each face. This step is similar to solving the centers on a 3x3 Rubik's Cube. Align the small center pieces to form a single color on each face.

  2. 2. Pairing Edge Pairs:

    • Your next goal is to pair up the edge pieces that share the same colors. Look for two edge pieces with matching colors and place them adjacent to each other, forming a pair. This can be done intuitively or by using algorithms.

  3. 3. Creating the "Oll Parity":

    • At this point, you might encounter what's known as the "Oll Parity." It's a situation where the last two edges cannot be solved using standard 3x3 methods. To resolve this, use the "Oll Parity" algorithm to flip the edge pieces without disturbing the centers or the rest of the solved cube.

  4. 4. Solving the Remaining Edges:

    • After the "Oll Parity" is fixed, continue pairing up and solving the remaining edge pieces as you did in step 2.

  5. 5. Solving Like a 3x3 Cube:

    • Once all the edge pairs are paired and in the right position, treat the cube as a 3x3 Rubik's Cube. Use the same techniques and algorithms you would for a 3x3 cube to solve the last layer. This includes solving the last layer edges, orienting the last layer corners, and permuting the last layer corners.

  6. 6. "PLL Parity" (if needed):

    • In some cases, you may encounter a "PLL Parity" issue on the last layer where two corners or two edges are swapped. To fix this, use the "PLL Parity" algorithm to resolve it.

  7. 7. Finish the Cube:

    • Finally, solve any remaining corner or edge permutation issues on the last layer using the appropriate algorithms.

It's important to note that solving a 4x4 Rubik's Cube can be quite challenging, and it requires learning and practicing various algorithms. You may need to refer to a comprehensive guide or video tutorials for the specific algorithms and techniques. Remember that patience and practice are key to mastering the 4x4 Rubik's Cube.

Learn to solve a Pyraminx.

  Solving a Pyraminx can be done using a methodical approach. Here's a basic step-by-step guide to solving a Pyraminx: Step 1: Understand the Pyraminx Notation Before you start solving, familiarize yourself with the Pyraminx notation: U - Rotate the upper face clockwise. U' - Rotate the upper face counterclockwise. R - Rotate the right face clockwise. R' - Rotate the right face counterclockwise. L - Rotate the left face clockwise. L' - Rotate the left face counterclockwise. B - Rotate the back face clockwise. B' - Rotate the back face counterclockwise. Step 2: Solve the Tips Begin by solving the tips of the Pyraminx. This involves matching the colors on the tips with the center color of each face. You can do this by turning the tips until the colors match. Step 3: Solve the First Layer Once the tips are solved, move on to solving the first layer. This involves solving the three triangular pieces surrounding the center. Follow these steps: Choose a Color : Pi...

Learn how to solve a 5 by 5 Rubik's Cube.

  Solving a 5x5 Rubik's Cube is similar to solving the 3x3 Cube, but it involves some additional steps due to the increased complexity. Here's a basic guide to solving a 5x5 Rubik's Cube, also known as the Professor's Cube: 1. Solve the Centers: Start by solving the center pieces of each face. This is relatively easy as these pieces don't move. Focus on getting one center color on each face. 2. Pair the Edges: Pair up the edge pieces with their corresponding colors to create "edge pairs." Unlike the 3x3, you may have to deal with more than one piece per edge. 3. Solve the First Two Layers (F2L): Similar to the 3x3, solve the first two layers by pairing up the edge and corner pieces to create complete "F2L pairs." This might involve pairing an edge from one layer with a corner from another layer. 4. Pair the Last Edges (L4E): Pair up the last remaining edge pieces. This step may require some advanced techniques. 5. Solve the Last Two Centers: Now,...
