Pyraminx pieces and notation
The pieces
To solve the pyraminx we must first know a little. The pyraminx has 14 pieces of 3 different types.
Centers
The pyraminx has 4 central pieces, they are the pieces that serve as axis to move each end.
Edges
The pieces that have just formed the central part of each face are the edges. There are 6 of them and they are the key to solve it, as the tips and centers will be easily solved, the edges are the most relevant part.
Tips
The 4 tips of the pyraminx are the easiest part to solve, if you want to try to turn them and make them coincide with the centerpiece, you will have completed the first step to solve it.
Notation pyraminx
The pyraminx has 4 faces, but unlike the cube we will rotate the tips instead of the faces.
We can rotate the tip in two different ways, rotating only the tip piece, or rotating the tip together with the layer underneath. The rotational movements of only the tip are not considered in the notation as they are of little relevance and are very simple.
