2-Gen OLL/PLL Algs

[Escher]

Stachu was just joking. RUD is 3 gen (it uses 3 layers).

Wrong!

Hint: A generator does not have to be 'one move'.

 

[cuBerBruce]

That's 3 gen, either RUM or rUR.


However, this is 2 gen:
R U R' D R U' R' D'
isn't it?

Yep, <RUR', D>.

The the wiki lies!

Stands for 2 Generator, an algorithm that uses only two sides or slices of the puzzle.

Then the wiki lies!

It does indeed.

"Stands for 2 Generator, an algorithm that uses only two sides or slices of the puzzle."

So is that true or not. If it is, my alg is 2 gen.

"Stands for 2 Generator, an algorithm that uses only two sides or slices of the puzzle."

So is that true or not.

The wiki is, in this case, dumb.

 

[Hershey]

Yep, <RUR', D>.

Oh!

Wait, so basically commutators are 2 gen?

 

[Kirjava]

If it is, my alg is 2 gen.
