Rubik’s Cube Tutorial
Notation
| Right: R | Left: L | ||
| Up: U | Down: D | ||
| Front: F | Back: B |
Normal direction is clockwise looking at the face.
Counter-clockwise is donated with an apostrophe like so: R'
R2 would mean doing R' twice

Cross
Solve the 4 edges around the white center. Split up this step by first putting the 4 white edges around the yellow center making a "daisy", then solving them into their appropriate spot.
Bottom Corners
Hence forth, white should remain on the bottom.

A perm: R' F R' B2 R F' R' B2 R2
With headlights in front, apply alg
Solve Edges
U perm: R2 U' (F B') R2 (B F') U R2
If no edges are solved, apply the algorithm from any angle.
If 1 edge is solved, put it on the left
Apply the alg
