THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF NOTATION!

I really hated notation at first, but after almost a year of cubing notation has become a great friend of mine.  I'll be sharing with you the notation that I'm most familiar with, if you have any questions...e-mail me at: richy_jr_2000@hotmail.com

* Letters with an apostrophe after it mean counter-clockwise, and letters by themselves mean clockwise

There are 3 axis turns on the cube...x, y, and z.  They are marked accordingly for direction of axis turn and such.  A lot of people use axis turns in their algs, because it really helps.

Lower cases notation shows a face turn and slice.  For example:  (r) is the equivalent to (RM')
