Fun fact about the Rubik's cube:

Ernő Rubik, a Hungarian architect and professor, invented what we now know as the Rubik's Cube in 1974. At the time, he was trying to create a teaching tool to help his students understand three-dimensional geometry. The initial version of the cube was made of wood and paper clips, designed to allow the smaller cubes to move independently without the whole structure falling apart.

When Rubik first scrambled his invention, he didn't realize he had created a puzzle. It wasn't until he tried to return the cube to its original state that he understood the challenge he had set for himself. It took him about a month to solve his own puzzle. During this time, Rubik developed a deeper appreciation for the complexity of the cube. He experimented with various strategies, gradually understanding the principles needed to solve it.
