Terrine 0 Posted December 23, 2010 Hello Community, I´m a new Member! I have been interested in AutoIT for a long time but doesnt have time because of school. Now I must do a project with 2 other friends for the school! We have decided to do an Rubik Cube Solver with AutoIT! We want that the programm shows an clueless person the steps ( Left, Right etc.) to solve it! But before the person must type the fields of the mixed Rubik Cube in the programm. So I would like to ask how to start something like that?! I have no experience with AutoIT before. Only with VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) but only a bit. I have 1.5 month to do this project! I hope you can help me out! Greets, Terrine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juvigy 49 Posted December 23, 2010 Do you have the algorithm ready that can do that ? Seems to me that this is not an easy project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terrine 0 Posted December 23, 2010 Yes I have!! It´s the Beginner Method! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juvigy 49 Posted December 23, 2010 Then start from the help file. There are also examples Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terrine 0 Posted December 23, 2010 Where is the help file? Can I ask you if I have any problems? Per PM =O. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terrine 0 Posted December 23, 2010 Can you do something like that? Because I dont know how long I need to learn it. The project is for me a challenge... Greets, Terrine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamtheky 927 Posted December 23, 2010 (edited) Before I write this thread off as a complete joke, because it is hilarious... Have you decided which method you are going to use to solve what I am assuming is a 3x3x3 cube? Do you have a VB implementation, or any progress at all?

sleepydvdr 8 Posted December 23, 2010 I have been playing with AutoIt for a couple years now and I don't think there's any way I could write such a program in a month and half. Couldn't you pick a less ambitious program to write? This seems to be very complicated and will cause you lots of stress. #include <ByteMe.au3> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZacUSNYR 4 Posted December 23, 2010 I don't think it'd be too complicated if you understood a rubiks cube. http://www.cubbix.net84.net/index.php?p=2_1 I don't - so mine would be MsgBox(0, "Rubiks Cube Solver", "Peal all stickers off rubiks cube and restick so they match. Press OK when done") Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terrine 0 Posted December 23, 2010 Ehm... I understand a rubik cube and how to solve it! But my problem is that I dont know how to do it in AutoIT?! And to your question: Because we have 2 people who knows how to solve it and understand the principle. Do you know any program to write that is very brilliant and that the audience (My classmates) to say: "WOW!" Greets Terrine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Terrine 0 Posted December 23, 2010 The first link: I dont know what to do with this one?! o.O The second link: hahaha.. Funny.. I want make this BUT I dont know if this is OK?!... I must ask this my teacher! B2T: Can anyone know something that I can maybe use for Rubik Cube AutoIT?! Question: I have searched the internet for a while and I have found "many" sources of Rubik Cube for JAVA.. Is the soure similar the same or complete diffrent? And is Rubik Cube in JAVA or Rubik Cube in AutoIT easier or difficulty? Greets, Terrine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamtheky 927 Posted December 23, 2010 I think my first impressions were correct. You are looking for someone to give you the code to solve a rubiks cube, and that is hilarious. If it actually happens it will be even more so. ,-. .--. ________ .-. .-. ,---. ,-. .-. .-. .-. |(| / /\ \ |\ /| |__ __||| | | || .-' | |/ / \ \_/ )/ (_) / /__\ \ |(\ / | )| | | `-' | | `-. | | / __ \ (_) | | | __ | (_)\/ | (_) | | .-. | | .-' | | \ |__| ) ( | | | | |)| | \ / | | | | | |)| | `--. | |) \ | | `-' |_| (_) | |\/| | `-' /( (_)/( __.' |((_)-' /(_| '-' '-' (__) (__) (_) (__) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terrine 0 Posted December 23, 2010 So your first impressions were wrong!! I only want some tips! Because I habe never use AutoIT before and want to learn it!.. Its for me a challenge that I want to complete! But you wont help me at all.. Its a little disappionent =P !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smashly 12 Posted December 23, 2010 Hi, I could probably make the 3D version of a Rubik Cube using AutoIt and IrrLicht. eg: 3D cube that can be rotated and zoom in and out for viewing. Left mouse button to select a color row on a face, arrow key to rotate the selected row in a direction. Right mouse to unselect selected color row. Left mouse button not on the cube and move mouse to rotate the whole cube (for viewing other sides of the cube) Mouse scroll wheel to zoom in and out. But as for solving Rubik Cube I have no idea. I can have ago at a 3D version if you like, not sure how well it'll work. This way you can put your solver to a visual theme. Let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimaera 144 Posted December 24, 2010 Imho Terrine If you were serious about learning Autoit then you would be busy writing code and offering bits up to show which direction you were taking on a complex problem which the learned gentlemen here could advise on. being as you are still asking for tips then im assuming you want it written for you so its no effort on your part. Everything you need to know to get you started is in the help file If Ive just helped you ... miracles do happen.

Terrine 0 Posted December 24, 2010 The first thing is that I dont know how to start something like that.. And besides is asking people to give little tips how to do it equal that someone should write it for me?! I have start with my friend a week ago but we dont have any progress... So I want some tips that we could think of an idea and do it... Greets, Terrine EDIT: My English is bad I know.. o.O Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
