README

Tool to generate, verify and analyse scrambles for various twisty puzzles. This is not an official WCA scrambler but good enough for casual use.

Installation

> composer require robiningelbrecht/twisty-puzzle-scrambler

Usage

Standard cube

Generate random scramble

The RandomScramble factory generates scrambles that are WCA compliant (in size).

// R F2 U' R' U2 F R' F2 R' U'
$scramble = RandomScramble::twoByTwo();
// R2 F' R2 D2 B R2 F' L2 U2 F' R2 F' U' F2 R D2 F L R U' L'
$scramble = RandomScramble::threeByThree();
// F2 L2 F' U2 L2 B2 D' R2 D' R2 U2 L2 R2 U2 R D' F2 L' D2 B' R Uw2 R' B2 Uw2...
$scramble = RandomScramble::fourByFour();
// R' Fw Uw Lw2 Dw U L2 B2 R2 Lw' L F2 Dw' B2 R Rw' L2 Bw' Uw2 D' U' L' Bw D...
$scramble = RandomScramble::fiveByFive();
// L D' B L2 3Fw' Fw' Uw2 U' R2 3Rw 3Uw Bw' 3Rw2 Rw' Uw2 3Uw2 3Rw' L2 Lw' D F2...
$scramble = RandomScramble::sixBySix();
// 3Bw2 3Rw' 3Dw Uw' 3Bw2 3Rw2 Lw' F B' D Lw' 3Bw' D2 Uw2 3Fw U2 3Lw' 3Dw' B Fw'...
$scramble = RandomScramble::sevenBySeven();

Or you can generate scrambles yourself

$scramble = CubeScramble::random($scrabmleSize, Size::fromInt($cubeSize))

Reverse scrambles

$scramble = RandomScramble::threeByThree();
$reversedScramble = $scramble->reverse();

Output scramble as human-readable notation

$scramble = RandomScramble::threeByThree();
print_r($scramble->forHumans());

Validate and analyse a scramble

$scramble = CubeScramble::fromNotation(
    "B D R2 U F2 U' R2 U' B2 L2 U2 L2 R2 B' F2 R' U L D' U R'",
    Size::fromInt($cubeSize)
);

At that point the scramble is stringable or jsonSerializable. When the scramble is invalid, a InvalidScramble exception will be thrown.

Pyraminx

// U' B' L' R' U B U R' l' b u'
$scramble = RandomScramble::pyraminx();
$scramble = PyraminxScramble::random($scrabmleSize)

Skewb

// B L' R L' B' U R' B' U'
$scramble = RandomScramble::skewb();
$scramble = SkewbScramble::random($scrabmleSize)

Megaminx

//  R++ D++ R-- D++ R++ D++ R++ D-- R++ D++ U R++ D-- R-- D-- R-- D++ R++ D-- R++ D++ U...
$scramble = RandomScramble::megaminx();
$scramble = MegaminxScramble::random($scrabmleSize, $numberOfSequences)

Clock

// UR1+ DR3- DL0+ UL6+ U4- R6+ D1- L6+ ALL2+ y2 U1+ R3+ D1- L4+ ALL3- DR DL UL
$scramble = RandomScramble::clock();
$scramble = CockScramble::random()

Sq1

//  (4,0)/ (0,3)/ (3,0)/ (-3,0)/ (2,-1)/ (4,-3)/ (0,-3)/ (0,-2)/ (3,-1)/ (2,-1)/ (3,0)/ (-2,0)/ (3,0)/ (0,-5)
$scramble = RandomScramble::sq1();
$scramble = Sq1Scramble::random($scrabmleSize)
