A Rubik's Cube is a mechanical puzzle invented in 1974 by Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Ernő Rubik. The Rubik's Cube is a plastic cube marketed in several different versions: 2x2x2 (Pocket Cube), 3x3x3 (the classic version), 4x4x4 (Rubik's Revenge), 5x5x5 (Professor's Cube), 6x6x6, and a limited version of 7x7x7. The 3x3x3 version—the most common—has nine square tiles on each side, a surface area of 54 tiles, and a volume of 27 cubes. The sides of the cube are usually covered with stickers in six different colors, one for each side of the cube. When the puzzle is solved, each side of the cube consists of only one color.The Rubik's Cube, which first appeared to the public under the name Magic Cube, was re-released in May 1980 as Rubik's Cube named after its Hungarian inventor, and has been known by this name ever since in most languages of the world. It is considered the best-selling toy in history, with sales of about 300 million original cubes and imitations.

The Friedrich method consists of 7 simple and clear steps for solving the Rubik's Cube.After you learn to solve the cube using the Friedrich method and feel that you understand the algorithms and aren't just memorizing them, you'll reach the stage where you want to solve the cube quickly. The world record for a single solve of a Rubik's Cube currently stands at 3.47 seconds (Note: the original text mentioned 7.08). You likely won't reach this speed unless you practice constantly (and even then it will be difficult), but quite a few people can solve the cube in less than a minute. Most use more advanced methods than the Friedrich method that also require understanding and not just memorization. Good luck!
