Class CubeParser

java.lang.Object
  ch.randelshofer.rubik.solver.CubeParser

public class CubeParser
extends java.lang.Object

Parse the cube state passed in on the command line checking for gross syntax errors. For example, all 9 facelet markings for each of the six sides must be specified, and markings must be a printable ASCII character. If the parse was successful a "FaceletCube" is initialized. The FaceletCube represents the cube by the markings of the 54 individual facelets. The FaceletCube can then be asked to validate the cube to determine if it is in a legal, and thus solvable, configuration. This class has been derived from cubepars.cpp and cubepars.h from the 'Kociemba Cube Solver 1.0' (KCube) (c) Greg Schmidt.
