Face move

Clockwise Turns

Counter-clockwise Turns

Double Turns

R'	=	Right face counter-clockwise
L'	=	Left face counter-clockwise
F'	=	Front face counter-clockwise
B'	=	Back face counter-clockwise
U'	=	Up (top) face counter-clockwise
D'	=	Down (bottom) face counter-clockwise

Do each of these turns as if you are looking directly at the face you are turning.

Middle layer move (slice move)

Clockwise Turns

Counter-clockwise Turns

Double Turns

r	=	right middle layer clockwise
l	=	left middle layer clockwise
f	=	front middle layer clockwise
b	=	back middle layer clockwise
u	=	up (top) middle layer clockwise
d	=	down (bottom) middle layer clockwise

r'	=	right middle layer counter-clockwise
l'	=	left middle layer counter-clockwise
f'	=	front middle layer counter-clockwise
b'	=	back middle layer counter-clockwise
u'	=	up (top) middle layer counter-clockwise
d'	=	down (bottom) middle layer counter-clockwise

r²	=	right middle layer twice
l²	=	left middle layer twice
f²	=	front middle layer twice
b²	=	back middle layer twice
u²	=	up (top) middle layer twice
d²	=	down (bottom) middle layer twice

Cube Rotation

x	=	rotate the entire cube as if you were doing the move R
y	=	rotate the entire cube as if you were doing the move U
z	=	rotate the entire cube as if you were doing the move F

Double slices move

M	=	R L' x'	=	turn both middle layers between L and R counterclockwise when facing R
E	=	D' U y'	=	turn both middle layers between U and D counterclockwise when facing U
S	=	F' B z	=	turn both middle layers between F and B clockwise when facing F
