This is a port of Skewb puzzle for X Window.
The original puzzle has each face cut by a diamond, so that
there are 5 pieces, 4 corner pieces and one diamond piece in
the center. The was designed by Uwe Meffert and called the
Pyraminx Cube. Douglas Hofstadter later coined it a Skewb and
it stuck. The puzzle has period 3 turning (i.e. each half
turns with 120 degree intervals). The Skewb has 2^5*3^8*6!/2^6
or 3,149,280 different combinations (with centers oriented
2^5*3^8*6!/2 or 100,766,960 different combinations).
More recently, Disney released Mickey's Challenge, its a
spherical skewb with a pretty good internal mechanism.
Mickey's challenge has 2^5*3^8*6!/36 5,598,720 visually
different combinations). It also comes with a pretty neat
book. Also released is the Creative Puzzle Ball or Meffert's
Challenge which has 4 rings in different colors.
Mach Balls of the Hungarian Gyula Mach are similar but they
do not have a ratchet mechanism and do not turn as easily or
moothly. One must match the 12 different symbols of 4 each at
the 12 intersection points.
