This is yet another Java implementation of the classical Rubik's Cube.
I tried to make the user interface as simple and obvious as possible. You
should be able to figure out how it works. Twist or rotate by pointing
and dragging in "natural" directions.

Press s to scramble and r to restore (while positioning
the mouse cursor somewhere in the applet region).
Note that it's not possible to twist the middle segments. That would
have interfered too much with the plain rotation.
An optional parameter, "bgcolor", has been added. If used, it takes as
input a background color as a hexadecimal RGB value, e.g. "25003f" for
deep purple. Default is ordinary light gray.
More than 13 years after this project, I built a similar cube for the iPhone.
Not as a standard application, but as a web app -- out of JavaScript and WebKit
style extensions -- just to see if it could be done. And it could. The following
link won't work in a browser, but it should run fine on your iPhone or iPod Touch:
