Subject: number of reachable states
I have seen the number 4.3 * 10^19 for the number of reachable states
for the cube,  can anyone tell me how you calculate it?  This may have
been answered before in this list, but I couldn't find it.
Also, someone mentioned that one can make a checkerboard pattern from
the Pons Asinorum by trebly rotating the centers by a simple
transformation. Can anyone tell me this transformation? (again I may
have missed reading it)
Reply to either me or the list.
