Notation

The notation used on this site is the most commonly used notation (RLUDFBxyzEMS) with suffix "w" for double layer turns adopted from JSCC notation.

Each face turn is indicated by a letter corresponding to the layer to be turned and a suffix indicating the number of turns and direction. Suffix indicate the direction observed with that face in front. M, E, and S are turned in direction of R, D, and F, respectively.

Layers

R = Right face

L = Left face

U = Up face

D = Down face

F = Front face

B = Back face

M = Middle slice (between R and L)

E = Equatorial slice (between U and D)

S = Side slice (between F and B)

Turns

(no suffix) = Clockwise quarter turn

' = Counter-clockwise quarter turn

2 = Half turn (180 degrees)

w = Clockwise double layer quarter turn

'w = Counter-clockwise double layer quarter turn

2w = Doublt layer half turn

Whole Cube Turns

x = Turn the whole cube in direction of R

y = Turn the whole cube in direction of U

z = Turn the whole cube in direction of F
