Pyra TTF, or Pyraminx Tip-to-Face, is an application that takes pyraminx algorithms in WCA notation, and converts them to face-turning algorithms.
The original purpose of the application was to generate algorithms that can be applied to the cell-turning 4D pyraminx in MC4D, but it turns out that there is a way to solve it without resorting to RKT: https://www.rayzz.me/articles/hypercubing/4-simplex-solution.html.
- Python 3.8 or newer
Running
python main.py "R U R' U R U R'"
in a shell (assuming you're in the right directory) gives the output
Lw Rw Dw' Fw Lw Dw Fw'
Also included is a shell script so one can call ./pyrattf.sh "[algorithm]" instead.
The algorithm must only contain moves that are either
- Part of valid WCA Pyraminx notation, though X2, X'2, and X2' moves are allowed, OR
- Face turns, such as Lw, Rw, Fw, and Dw
separated by spaces. Note that rotations are not allowed in the input.
