What is the secret 2 the rubix cube??

The centre square on each side decides the colour that the whole side should be. If you pulled a cube apart you would notice that the centre squares are connected by axles and the other blocks rotate around them. \n\n\nEach face is named as shown. "Front" faces towards you, "Back" is on the back, "Top" is on the top, "Down" is on the bottom, "Left" and "Right" are also obvious. These names are abbreviated with the letters: F, B, T, D, L, R. The positions of the colours do not affect the names of the sides. Following the letter that indicatees which face to turn is a lowercase letter that indicates how to turn it. To indicate a turn of a face by 90 degrees clockwise I will use the letter 'o', for 90 degrees anti-clockwise I will use 'a', and for 180 degrees (or turning it twice) I will use 'i'. \nExamples: Fo means turn the front face 90 degrees clockwise. \nTi La Do means turn the 'top' face twice then the 'left' face anti-clockwise, then the 'down' face clockwise. Using these letters means the formulas became pronouncable and so easier to remember.\n\nRemember when applying an 'algorithm' do not rotate the entire cube in your hands as the faces will change and you will stuff it up. You can, of course, do as much rotating between 'algorithms' as you like.\n\nWhere there is more than one 'algorithm' by one picture they are alternatives, do not do all of them, just choose one. \n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nStage 1 \nThe aim here is to get one face completed. Note that just getting one colour all on one face is not quite good enough. You need to get each separate 'little cube' in it's correct position on the face, (if you know what I mean). So if you're going to put one colour into place check the other colour(s) attached to the same piece of plastic, and line them up also.\n\nWhich side you start with is not relevant, choose any colour, and hold the cube so that the 'up' face has that colour as it's centre square. \nYou can rotate the 'up' face or the 'down' face to get your cube into one of the following positions, as that won't mess up the top face.\n\nHere's how to do it:\n\n \nIn this position do this: \nDo Ro La Fa Ra Lo\n\n \nHere you should do the following: \nRo La Fi Ra Lo \n\n\n \n In this position try one of these: \nRa Da Ro \nDo Fo Da Fa\n\n \nThis is a similar situation. \nFo Do Fa \nDa Ra Do Ro \n\n\n\n \nIf you encounter this do one of these: \nRa Do Ro \nFo Da Fa \nThen you get one of the two previous situations \n \nFa Ra Lo Do Ro La \nTo Lo Ta Do Fa\n\n \nTa Ro Fo Ba Da Fa Bo To \nTi Ba To Da Ro To \n\n\n\nIf the 'little cube' you need to make the top face is already in the top row except the wrong way up, or in the wrong place, or both, then just move another 'little cube' to where it is and that should move it out of the top row.\n\nOnce you have applied which-ever of the above algorithms you required to complete one side of your cube then you have successfully completed stage 1. Well done. \n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nStage 2 \nYou should, by now, have one row out of three of the cube completed. The aim of this stage is to complete the middle row. Start by turning the cube upside down so the completed 'up' face now becomes the 'down' face. Find a 'little cube' that is on what is now the top row and should be in the middle row, and find where it's meant to go. Hold your cube so that where it's meant to go is on the left of the 'front' face and turn the 'up' face so that the 'little cube' you are moving is above the 'front' face. Then follow one of these instructions: \n \nFo Ti Ro Ta Ra Ti Fa \n\n\n \nTa Fo Ti Ro To Ra Ti Fa \n\n

the cube root can be found using a calculator\nmake sure you have a scientific one though\ni had do use it alot in geometry\n\nits alot like a square root just three instead of 2

Look for a picture of it or something that say cubic gold 2 (icon) when you first turn your computer on.

CLUE 1: The number squared < 1200\nTake square roots: the number < 34.64...\nIt is an integer, so the number ≤ 34.\n\nCLUE 2: The number cubed > 29000\nTake cube roots: the number > 30.72...\nIt is an integer, so the number ≥ 31.\n\nCLUE 3: The fourth power of the number < 930000\nTake fourth root: the number < 31.05...\nIt is an integer, so the number ≤ 31.\n\nFrom CLUE 2 and CLUE 3 the number must be 31 (which is consistent with CLUE 1).

rt11guru said it.  here's another easy way.  write down the powers of two in *descending* order, starting with the one that is next smallest after your number.  for instance, the power of 2 that comes after 534 is 512 or 2^9.  so you write down this list of numbers:\n\n512 | 256 | 128 | 64 | 32 | 16 | 8 | 4 | 2 | 1\n\nthen go through and find the largest of these powers of 2 that is less than your number.  in this case, that is 512.  put a 1 underneath 512:\n\n512 | 256 | 128 | 64 | 32 | 16 | 8 | 4 | 2 | 1\n  1\n\nnow subtract that power of 2 from the number you started with.  534-512 = 24.  repeat the process.  find the largest power of 2 that is less than 24, which is 16.  put a 1 under that number:\n\n512 | 256 | 128 | 64 | 32 | 16 | 8 | 4 | 2 | 1\n   1  |        |        |      |      |  1  |    |    |    |\n\nnow subtract that power of 2 from your number.  24-16 = 8.  keep doing this until you've reached zero.  in this case it only requires one more step, because 8 - 8 = 0.  your table at the end should look like this:\n\n512 | 256 | 128 | 64 | 32 | 16 | 8 | 4 | 2 | 1\n   1  |        |        |      |      |  1  | 1 |    |    |\n\nnow, everywhere that is missing a 1, fill in a 0.  \n\n\n512 | 256 | 128 | 64 | 32 | 16 | 8 | 4 | 2 | 1\n   1  |   0   |   0   |  0  |  0  |  1  | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0\n\nthat sequence is your binary number.  in the case of 534, it is 1000011000.\n\n(sorry, this looks terrible.  can't format it properly in this yahoo window.  but, each one of those | in the bottom rows should line up with the | in the top row.)

Seperate the constants - you get:\n\n2x = -3\n\nDivide both sides by 2\n\n\nx = -3/2\n\ntake the cube root of -3/2\n\nIts an irrational about -1.2599

I've seen cube, cube 2, and cube zero. Yes there is another one... i thought that the first one was the best. I think its just some corporations sick experiments

I actually tried that back in 2004 by putting symbols like stars, circles and crosses, etc, on the corresponding colors. And, surprising to us students who did it as a school project, out of the 25 selected sight impaired persons between 12 and 45 years of age, about 7 of them solved it within 6 hours! Even more surprising was 12 others kept the cube as long as they needed. Conclusion: it's a great idea!
