I was sort of hoping Bush would get re-elected so that things can finally get bad enough to justify a gory revolution. Why slow down the long, tortuous road to...
jesse, i doubt you really want a gory revolution and i'm sure there wouldn't be one if bush is reelected. regardless, if you don't vote, you forfeit your right...
david v. politely pointed out that it was inappropriate of me to post something so off-topic to the list and he's entirely right. i humbly apologize and...

I am wondering if anyone can provide the reference for a way of presenting 3D Rubik's in 2D by regarding it as an empty box and displaying the view looking...
Two Java applets come to mind. I wrote the first one: http://www.puzzlingaddiction.com/Cube/applet/ http://www.geocities.com/jaapsch/puzzles/cubie.htm...
... I had not found those. The second one has some the more impressive elaborations I have seen in any of the Rubik's Cube simulators. David's comes closest...
On the MagicCube4D home page, the links for Nate and his Hyper Cube program no longer work. I had encountered and tried Nate's program about the same time I ...
... OK. Thanks Melinda. So that problem is solved now. I am embarrassed that I did not do yet another search before I posted my query. I find him now with...
I've solved the 2^4 (920 moves)...Why there is no hall of fame of 2^4?;) (I can do better;) <- or I hope I can;). The 2^4 is not so easy... Where can I find...
hello remigiusz, i'm not keeping track of 2^4 solutions since every 3^4 solver is my definition also a 2^4 solver. i will however maintain a record of the...
... Congratulations on your solution. :-) I had posted my 588-move solution to 2^4 some time ago. I solved on July 2, 2004. At the time, we reached loose...
... thank you... ... record... #) Okey;) I haven't look closer to this cube... (moves on 2^4 are diffrent...and for example I translated the Second 4-colour...
A few years back I thought of a possible "physical model" for higher dimensional Rubik's Cubes. The phrase "physical model" must of course be taken with a...
Perhaps a few pictures are in order, since equations don't always give a geometric intuition of what's going on. There should be two gifs attached to this...
Excuse me for talking so much....(when I joined there started the high activity on this group;)) I have another questions and suggestions: -I want to translate...
... Feel free to translate this solution and to use any material from it. If you publish another solution that directly copies material (or is based on...
Remigiusz, you do not need to make excuses for "disturbing" the list. i know it seems like it's asleep most of the time but i'm sure most members would like to...
The linux version does let you rotate in 3d, but not a fully general rotation-- there are two degrees of freedom called "tilt" and "twirl", which you can...

... A shortcut for this is to just shift-click on any cell. This will give you a 90, 120, or 180 degree rotation of the entire puzzle, just like holding down...
... Forgot about that-- much easier :-) ... And forgot that too!! I was trying SHIFT-left and CTRL-left -- oops. ... Is there any way to get it to print out...

hello nathanael, welcome to the MC4D group!! you will be interested to know that don and i originally had a protracted debate about the "best" 4D...
... Indeed, from the point of view of algebra, both of your models yield the same set of possible states. In fact, I believe with my "physical model" all the...
... How to do it: Rotate a face, say the top one, 45 degrees. You can then pry up the edge pieces of the top face, popping them out without damaging...
It's fun to see some mathematics happening in this forum. Although actually solving a Rubik's Hypercube is certainly interesting, the mere fact that we're...
