Professors Cube/Patterns

Pretty Patterns

Checkered Faces

To get the Professors Cube cube into a state where each face is covered with a checkered pattern (orange-red, blue-green, and white-yellow), apply the following algorithm to three orthogonal faces:

U U u u d d D D

That is,

• Two clockwise rotations of the upper layer

• Two clockwise rotations of the upper two layers

• Two clockwise rotations of the upper three layers

• Two clockwise rotations of the upper four layers

Apply this algorithm to either the red or orange face; apply it to either the white or yellow face; and finally, apply it to either the blue or green face.

This algorithm has 32 moves total.
