Square-1 Animations
After creating a POV-Ray system for animating Square-1, I proceeded to applying it to algorithms. And for usefulness in speedsolving, I could think of none better than Vandenbergh's. I emailed him for permission to create animations for all the algorithms; he replied affirmatively in half an hour. It took me an extra week to code the batch file with the proper includes, and here is the result.| Algorithm | Video file |
