Model a Rubix Cube in an Array Java

Does anybody have any idea on how to model a rubix cube in an array? I can't seem to think开发者_如何学C of a way?

The source code for this one is available:

Your in luck, it's Java. :)

This paper shows different ways to model the cube -

but a simple answer would be a 3x3x3 array with 3 digits.

I wouldn't try a 1 dimensional array. But you could have a 3 dimensional array.

And array of 3x3 arrays of each side.
