Purpose(s):


The Human Thistlethwaite Algorithm (abbreviated to HTA) is a human-usable version, proposed by Ryan Heise, of the Thistlethwaite algorithm. The solution is broken down into exactly the same basic steps of the computer Thistlethwaite algorithm, but each step in the human version is broken down into further sub-steps to make it managable for a human solver. The system proceeds as follows:

  1. Reduction to <U,D,L,R,F2,B2>
  2. Reduction to <U,D,L2,R2,F2,B2>
  3. Reduction to <U2,D2,L2,R2,F2,B2>
    • Corners
    • Edges
  4. Final Solve
    Permutation of all pieces using only 180 degree faces turns
