I recently just got into cubing and I just wanted to explain what they mean by 2-gen. In abstract algebra, there are mathematical structures called groups, which are sets with a binary operation (addition, subtraction) with a list of axioms that the set of elements has to satisfy. A generating set is a subset of the elements in a group when every possible distinct combination of binary operation between elements is performed, creates a subgroup of the group. An n-gen is simply an algorithm (product of elements of a subgroup) that can be generated by n distinct moves (elements). This seems arbitrary until we realize that the Rubik’s cube forms a group and our algorithms are elements in a subgroup of the Rubik’s cube. A 2-gen is an algorithm that can be generated by two basic moves (sexy move is generated by R and U and their inverses for example so it’s a 2-gen)

[@EpikBulletYT]

Whoa.

Another turn metric that was used some time ago: Axis/Axial Turn Metric (ATM). It was like STM, but only cared about the axis of rotation, and when that axis changed, a move was added. Example: R L is 1 move, R F is 2, R F B L R D is four

3:22 The mathematical word for that sort of averaging is _truncated mean_ where the extremes are eliminated and the mean is computed for the remaining results.

[@noahcarver1707]

Ooh! i know the generator thing! so in Group Theory, a generator set of a group is a minimal subgroup of elements (in this case, moves) such that every element of the group can be expressed as a combination of those moves. So here. N-gen is just talking about the order of the generator set. so, for example, the subgroup {R,R2,R',-} ('-' being the null move) can be generated by R: (R, RR, RRR, RRRR). it can also be generated by R' , but not by R2. group theory is so much fun!

+1 for the quick basic stats lesson on averages!

[@matt1285]

How do I transition from intuitive F2L to full F2L? I'm averaging around 20 seconds and the bulk of my solve time (~12 seconds) is F2L, and I'd like to work on bringing it down. I understand the importance of look ahead but there seems to be so many algorithms for F2L cases and I have no clue which ones are worth learning.

[@JPerm]

+Matthew Pharr an algorithm is worth learning for F2L if: - it can be executed faster than what you currently do - it doesn't hinder look ahead very much (such as using too much R2 or wide moves) Both of those must be true. Just start by picking an algorithm that solves a case you commonly run into. I find that one of the most important algs is R' F R F' R' U' R. Then once you have done it a few times in speedsolves, you'll remember it and you can learn a new one.

[@scrumptiousbisquitz1140]

could you like tell or show all the algorithms and finger tricks you have learnt and use currently in a video you could give links to the videos on the stuff you have already gone through its like everything you need to know to become as good as you pls i big fan

That's true. It's not about how fast you turn it's about how useful your moves are. That was an amazing inspiration for me who wanted a sub-30.

[@asr2009]

well if u want just one sub 30 solve, look for cubehead's lucky scramble part 1 video. it had an easy scramble with 19 move cfop solution. I average around 35-45 seconds(sometimes i do get 30-35 and rarely i have got 25-30), but i did that scramble in 12 seconds

[@Tsskyx]

There's also an ATM. Axial turn metric. I assume it means that something like M+R counts as a single move. Unfortunately, it won't make your cube spit out money for some reason.

I just learned the Rubik’s cube last week. I have my freashman year tests going, and instead of studying, I decided to learn some speedcube methods. This is where it gets a bit weird. I tried CFOP. Couldn’t do it cause OLL/PLL was wayyy too confusing. Tried zz. Same problem. But then I tried roux. My average went from 1:22 to 0:20. I know it’s not a lot, but still. One week.

+TheJor27 oh yeah forgot about that.

[@StewartStewart]

re: 2-gen The term "generator" comes from group theory, and it's not really "complicated math stuff". You already explained it - an algorithm generated by some sequence of two face turns. A rubik's cube can be described as the "group" of all scrambles. Since every scramble can be decomposed into a sequence the six face turns, we say that the group is "generated" by . This group has subgroups like (the group of any scramble that only has opposite colors on a face, which is generated by half terms) and (the group of any algorithm generated by any sequence of two adjacent turns. A "2-gen").
