Did you know: the world record for the fastest solve is 3.05 seconds, set by Xuanyi Geng. Basic moves: This is the start position in every move below R R' ' means backwards (R' means to turn the cube in opposite direction of R), 2 means twice(R2 means to do R twice) L L' U U' F F' 7 steps to solve a rubik's cube 1st step: make a daisy & cross Goal case 1 L' if the white edge's direction opposite (twisted), than do this: R if the white edge is in the bottom layer, and not facing you, than repeat the algorithm twice. solved case case 2 F' U L' if the white edge that you need to put in is towards you like ...
