For Rubix’s 23 is the New 25
Tomas Rokicki is at it again! If you recall, in March I wrote about his latest revelation that all Rubik’s Cube are solvable in 25 moves. Like any good mathematician and computer enthusiast, when in doubt, throw more hardware at the problem. Using the same algorithm as before with a Quad Intel Core 2 and [...]
All Rubik’s cube variations solvable in 25 moves
The childhood toy, the Rubik’s cube, has been proven to be solvable from any initial configuration set in 25 moves, one less than the 26 proven last year by a group at Northeastern University. Tomas Rokicki, a mathematician by school, uses a rather nifty piece of computer science. Rokicki’s proof is a neat piece of [...]
