What is Rubik's Cube?
Ernö Rubik was born on July 13, 1944 in Budapest, Hungary, during the second world war.
His father was a mechanic-engineer, glider builder, a renowned specialist, creator of more than twenty six types of gliders.
His mother was woman of letters, poetess and artist.
The Rubik's cube was invented in 1974 by the Hungarian professor of architecture Ernö Rubik. Some people may remember of it as the Magic Cube since at the beginning its inventor named it "Büvös Kocka", the Hungarian name for Magic Cube.
There are lots of way to solve the cube.
In general, it's divided to 4 categories:
1. Beginner Method
2. Intermediate Method
3. Advanced Method
4. Expert Method
I featured a link for the beginner method by Jasmine Lee.
Here's a link to solving F2L with intermediate method:
F2l Fridrich's Method, Intermediate
The difference is at the algorithms which should be memorized, the more algorithms you memorize, the faster you'll solve the cube!
For those who need a cube timer, I've got a link here: http://cubetimer.ciebiera.net/
It's a very good timer!
I suggest that you learn beginner solution first, and when you really get used to it, then go for the intermediate solution...
