RUBIKS_DIKCUBE(1)

✨ RUBIKS_DIKCUBE ✨

okay bestie, so this is rubiks_dikcube from section 1 (User Commands) of the manual, and it is literally the moment your cube gets solved for you. no cap.

---

💖 NAME 💖

rubiks_dikcube — a solver for the 3x3x3 Rubik's cube, powered by Kociemba's algorithm. yes, that algorithm. the good one. 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

rubiks_dikcube -t

rubiks_dikcube -p

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

It solves a 3x3x3 Rubik's cube using Kociemba's algorithm. that's it, that's the whole vibe. your scrambled little tragedy goes in, a solution comes out. 💅

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -t — a configuration will be entered from standard input 🫶
• -p — a pattern will be entered from standard input 🫶

---

🎀 CONFIGURATION FORMAT 🎀

The input should give the successive faces like this:

                   B
                 L U R D
                   F

but different letters can be used, okay? the letters are a suggestion, not a personality test. 💜

So: first the first 9 faces of B, followed by 3 faces of L, U, R and D all three times, followed by the faces of F.

The program will give you the translation between the symbols you actually used and the symbols used in the solution. so like, you could hand it the faces in the order

                   T
                 L F R B
                   D

and the program will use the translation T -> B -> D -> F -> U! 🧚

⚠️ important bestie, do not skip this: error messages about wrong position are after translation! so when it yells at you, it's yelling in translated-symbol language. iykyk. 😭

🌈 PATTERN FORMAT 🌈

A pattern can be entered in the following format, where a solved cube is represented by:

           BBB
           BBB
           BBB
        LLLUUURRRDDD
        LLLUUURRRDDD
        LLLUUURRRDDD
           FFF
           FFF
           FFF*

Whitespace and newlines can be omitted, and the * is required to start the program. not optional, not a garnish, it starts the program. periodt. ⭐
