Is this a WCA-approved scramble? #34

Does this algorithm produce a "random-state scramble"?

NickColley commented 8 years ago

I think some of the algorithms used will but others not, I have not investigated that so I can't be sure sorry :)

No. While these are directly pulled from jsss, this is not tnoodle and WCA has only approved tnoodle to be used to generate competition official scrambles.

Good to know thanks @coder13 !

zaynv commented 6 years ago

Oh I see, but even if it isn't a WCA approved scramble, it is still a "random state scramble" right? Mainly asking because I wanted to try to use it when making a cubing app.

Yes, I failed to mention this. I don't think the 4x4 one is random state but 2x2 and 3x3 are.
