What is a Rubiks Cube?
A Rubik’s cube is a mechanical puzzle in the shape of a cube which is comprised of 26 smaller cubes, with a rotating mechanism in the middle. To solve the puzzle, the user must rotate the smaller cubes so that each face of the larger cube is a uniform color. Cubing, as working on the Rubik’s cube is known, is an international pastime, and it is even possible to attend speed cubing championships and other competitions dedicated to showcasing cubing skills.
