    Square-1 solution method - Step 5


    Below you can find algorithms for each case. First the case in cycle notation is listed, followed by the actual algorithm. The numbers
    between square brackets denote the number of twists and the the number of turns respectively. The algorithms are grouped
    according to the number of edge swaps that need to be done in each layer. You should keep in mind that a 2-cycle counts as 1 edge
    swap, a 3-cycle counts as 2 edge swaps and a 4-cycle is the equivalent of 3 edge swaps.
