A letter with an apostrophe (F') denotes a 90 degree counter-clockwise turn. A letter followed by the number 2 (F2) denotes 2 turns, i.e. a 180 degree turn.  \nPart 1: First Layer Edges  \nYour first objective is to solve the four white edges, building a cross on your first layer as shown below.  \nNote that each white edge piece has another color sticker on it. When the white cross is completed, this other color has to match the center piece it's adjacent to.  \nYour cross should look like this: Not like this:  \nOnce you have finished the cross, keep the white cross on the bottom face for the rest of your solve.  \nPart 2: First Layer Corners  \nYour next step is to complete the first layer by filling in the corners. Locate a corner piece that has a white sticker on it. There are four of them, and they can be found on the top layer or bottom layer.  \nIf the corner piece is on the top layer, rotate U until it is directly above where it needs to go. Hold the cube so that this corner is at the UFR position. Now check the position of the white sticker. You have three possible cases:  \nR U R'  \nF' U' F  \nDoing R U2 R' or F' U2 F will reduce this to one of the above cases.  \nIf the white corner piece is on the bottom layer, replace it with different corner piece from the top layer. The white corner piece will then be in the top layer and you can now deal with it using one of the cases indicated above.  \nOnce you have done this with all four corners, you should be done with the first layer.  \nPart 3: Middle Layer Edges  \nNotice that the middle layer consists of just four edge pieces that need to be solved. An easy way to identify a middle layer edge is to look for edge pieces that have no yellow stickers on it.  \nIf the middle layer edge is on the top layer, rotate U until it's matched with an adjacent center sticker. Hold the cube so that its target position (where you want to place that edge) is at the FR position. You have two possible cases:  \nU R U' R' U' F' U F  \nU' F' U F U R U' R'  \nOnce you're finished with all four middle layer edges, you are done with the first two layers.  \nFor the last layer, diagrams will show a top-down view of what your top layer looks like. You will still be executing the algorithms with the top layer as the U face.  \nPart 4: Last Layer Cross  \nYour first objective is to orient the last layer edge pieces so they all have yellow facing up, forming a yellow cross on the last layer. The orientation of your last layer edges has three possible cases:  \nF R U R' U' F'  \nF U R U' R' F'  \nDo both of the above algorithms  \nPart 5: Last Layer Corner Orientation  \nComplete the last layer orientation by orienting the corners so that they all have yellow facing up. You only need to learn two algorithms for this. In fact, it's really only one algorithm, because one is simply the mirror image of the other. In the diagrams, the dashes on the sides represent which side the yellow sticker is on.  \nCase 1: Exactly one corner is already correctly oriented (has yellow sticker on top) . Determine which case it matches and apply the appropriate algorithm.  \nR U R' U R U2 R' L' U' L U' L' U2 L  \nCase 2: Exactly two corners are correctly oriented. Hold the cube so that the UFL corner needs to be rotated counter  \nclockwise (there should be a yellow sticker on the front face; see diagram) and do R U R' U R U2 R' to bring you to Case 1.  \nHold the cube like this.   \nCase 3: No corners are correctly oriented. Hold the cube so that the UFL corner needs to be rotated clockwise (there should be a yellow sticker on the left face; see diagram) and do R U R' U R U2 R' to bring you to Case 1.  \nHold the cube like this.   \nIf you end up with exactly three corners corr","cbCaiugrgFZp1mIx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiugrgFZp1mIx","pdf",123793,"English","# Notation\n# Part 1: First Layer Edges\n# Part 2: First Layer Corners\n# Part 3: Middle Layer Edges\n# Part 4: Last Layer Cross\n# Part 5: Last Layer Corner Orientation\n# Part 6: Last Layer Permutation","[{\"question\":\"What does the notation like F, F', and F2 mean when solving the cube?\",\"answer\":\"F means turn the front face 90 degrees clockwise.
