Pocket Cube Rubik's cube, simply by treating it as a 3x3x3 with solved (invisible) centers and edges. More advanced methods combine multiple steps and require more algorithms. These algorithms designed for solving a 2x2x2 cube are often significantly shorter and faster than the algorithms one would use for solving a 3x3x3 cube. The Ortega method, also called the Varasano method, is an intermediate method. First a face is built (but the pieces may be permuted incorrectly), then the last layer is oriented (OLL) and lastly both layers are permuted (PBL). The Ortega method requires a total of 12 algorithms. The CLL method
Halved cube graph in the original graph. For instance, the halved cube graph of order four may be formed from an ordinary three-dimensional cube by keeping the cube edges and adding edges connecting pairs of vertices that are on opposite corners of the same square face. The halved cube graph formula_2 of order 3 is the complete graph "K", the graph of the tetrahedron. The halved cube graph formula_3 of order 4 is "K", the graph of the four-dimensional regular polytope, the 16-cell. The halved cube graph formula_4 of order five is sometimes known as the Clebsch graph, and is the complement of
