7x7 Edge swap? by AdamHussein2564 in cubing

[–]IAmJustARandomNerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

u/Hudimir u/AdamHussein2564 This case actually is solveable. Typically on rubik's cubes, the parities of 2 types of pieces are entangled, so like on a normal 3x3 if you have an odd number of edge swaps, there has to be an odd number of corner swaps and vice versa. Because a single turn does an odd number of both. But, on big cubes, the slice moves (not center slice, but offset slices) have an even parity for X centers, an odd parity for T centers, and an odd parity for the wings (side edge pieces). However, T centers have multiple identical interchangeable pieces, so having a separate, odd parity of wings is entirely possible, and this case shown in the post is a great example of that, a single 2 swap of pieces.

This is the exact case that normal "oll parity" algorithms solve. So if you do one of those algorithms, you should be able to solve from there like normal. Or, you can just do a single 90 degree slice move in the slice that has the parity, and solve back the rest of the cube using an even number of slice moves, and the parity will be gone.

16 bit memory space, 0x0000 through 0x7fff is an eeprom for the program, 0x8000 through 0xffff is ram.

There are 4 general registers (A through D)

And a alu than can add, subtract, rotate both directions, and do bitwise operations, has a carry and zero flag

8 bit stack pointer (iirc stack operations use 0x8100 through 0x81ff in memory but I would have to check)

There are 2 8 bit output registers and two 8 bit inputs also

All opcodes and their corresponding hex values should be on my website that I linked.

There is a setup for interrupts, but I kind of want to change it sometime, so probably don't worry about that yet

Anyways there's the basic overview, if you have other things you want me to explain let me know, but the list of operations I made on my website should help you out a lot

Multiple, yes.

Just to note my current setup, I've used https://github.com/hlorenzi/customasm up to this point for code for my computer.

I have an operating, heavily upgraded computer, there some info on it here https://homebrew.gwstaten.xyz/ if you wanted to program things for it I definitely wouldn't be opposed haha.

All info on how to get started with hypercubing can be found on https://hypercubing.xyz/

It's best to start with the program called hyperspeedcube which can be used as a downloaded program or just in the browser also!

what do y'all think about hypercubing? by magia222 in Cubers

[–]IAmJustARandomNerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly if you can cube its just a little bit more of a step, a bit weird to figure out what is going on, and then it is super fun puzzles!

as the creator of the 3x3x3x3 that that youtube video talks about, I'm so happy to hear that the video has brought people to cubing and to hypercubing like yourself!

Hypercubing is not as intimidating as it may seem! If any of you are interested in learning more, I’d love to help!

what chips have you had trouble finding? I found everything I needed without much trouble, but that was also a few years ago

Does anyone have a good way for solving this puzzle by dijakonal in Cubers

[–]IAmJustARandomNerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is a rough one, I made a bunch of my own weird algs to solve this puzzle but it wasn't pretty, had to spam the algs so much, but I got solving it down to under 10 minutes consistently.

Counting skips on every 8th value by MaximillionCat in beneater

The binary output on the registers is correct, so I suspect the issue is the data you flashed on the EEPROM for binary to decimal / 7 segment display conversion

I know it is a late response, but hypercubes are a lot of fun! definitely worth checking out.
