##---------------------------------------------------------------------
## OVERVIEW
## This program is part of the rubikrotation package, and is complementary to 
## the LaTeX rubikcube package. It processes Rubik rotation sequences  on-the-fly. 
## The program reads a datafile (rubikstate.dat) output by the rubikcube package 
## and writes the new state to the file rubikstateNEW.dat, which is then input 
## by the TeX file. Further documentation  accompanies the rubikrotation package.

## Note that all posible state changing rotations of a 3x3x3 cube are
## either conbinations of, or the inverse of, just 9 different rotations,
## three associated with each XYZ axis.
##--------------------------------------------------

##=============main===================================================

## This main module opens three files, and 
##      sets up an array for collecting all errors (%error), and sets an error flag to "",
##      reads in the rubik state data file =rubikstate.dat (output by TeXfile),
##      and calls subs to write the TeX_OUT_FILE,
##      and finally closes all files.
## Each line of the input file consists of a comma separated list of arguments.
## The first argument in each line of the file rubikstate.dat is the rubikkeyword.
## Program is documented in the rubikrotation.pdf (see section ``Overview'')

### start by opening the three working files (last one ``for append'')

 open (IN_FILE, "<rubikstate.dat")||die "ERROR: can't open file rubikstate.dat\n";
 open (TeX_OUT_FILE, ">rubikstateNEW.dat")||die "ERROR: can't open file rubikstateNEW.dat\n";
 open (ERROR_OUT_FILE,  ">>rubikstateERRORS.dat")||die "ERROR: can't open file rubikstateERRORS,dat\n";

 ## use dots for Perl messages (I have used dashes for LaTeX messages in the .sty)
 ## gprint sub prints its argument (message) to both the screen and to the TeX_OUT_FILE

 gprint ("...PERL process...................................");

## setup  global error parameters, so we can write all the errors to a file as an array
%error       = (); # setup an array for error messages (was %)
$erroralert  = ""; # error flag
$errornumber = 0;  #set number of errors to zero

 gprint ("...reading the current rubik state (rubikstate.dat)");

##===========================================

##================================================
## The following 9  (90 degree) rotation transformations are used 
##   to generate all the rotations used in the `rotation sub'
##   each of these is a permutation for both colours and numbers
##   of the cubie facelets.
## The following 9 subroutines are named as follows: 
##   (about X-axis) rrR, rrSr, rrLp
##   (about Y-axis) rrU, rrSu, rrDp
##   (about Z-axis) rrF, rrSf, rrBp
##   see the rubikcube package documentation for full details regarding
##   rotation notation and commands.
## METHOD & NOTATION
## each sub (below) starts by making an array[0] for the cubie colour
##   and an array[1] for  the cubie number. 
## Each  of the face rotations (rrR, rrLp, rrU, rrDp, rrF, rrBp) is involved with 
##   two pairs of connected but different permutations/transformations as follows: 
##   (a) one pair for the 12 Side cubies (arrays = @Xs0 (for Side colours), @Xs1 (for Side numbers)), and 
##   (b) one pair for the 9 Face cubies (arrays = @Xf0 (for Face colours), @Xf1 (for Face numbers)).
## Each of the center slice rotations (rrSr, rrSu, rrSf)  is involved with just one pair of
##   permutations for the 12 Side cubies (arrays = @Xs0 (for Side colours), @Xs1 (for Side numbers)).
## We document only the side and face of the first sub (rrR) in detail, since the other subs are of similar form. 
##================================================
  sub rrR{

##  the R (slice + face) transform
## R = RIGHT, s = side; 0=colour, 1= number
## make the clockwise rotation permutation
## In this permutation the Front-right-bottom (Frb) (side)facelet rotates to 
## the new position of Up-right-bottom (Urb) (side)facelet.
##-----------SIDE-------
## 12 side cubie facelets in  arrays @Rs0 (colours) and @Rs1 (numbers)
## these are the initial positions
@Rs0=($Frb[0],$Frm[0],$Frt[0],   
      $Urb[0],$Urm[0],$Urt[0],  
      $Blt[0],$Blm[0],$Blb[0],  
      $Drb[0],$Drm[0],$Drt[0]);

@Rs1=($Frb[1],$Frm[1],$Frt[1],   
      $Urb[1],$Urm[1],$Urt[1],  
      $Blt[1],$Blm[1],$Blb[1],  
      $Drb[1],$Drm[1],$Drt[1]);

## now we reallocate the initial array elements to the new 
## post (90 degree clockwise) rotation position.
## Cube is viewed from FRONT.
## positions of side facelets of Right slice are numbered 0-11 in clockwise direction,
##   (as seen from Right face) starting with Up-right-bottom facelet. 
## first line example:  
## variable $Urb[0] (Upface-right-bottom colour) <-- colour of first element in @Rs0 (=Frb[0]) 
## variable $Urb[1] (Upface-right-bottom number) <-- number of first element in @Rs1 (=Frb[1])

##-------------Right FACE---------------------
## R FACE (9 cubies in each array)
## (numbered in rows: 1,2,3/4,5,6/7,8,9 from top left(1) to bottom right(9))
## R=Right, f = face; 0=colour, 1= number
## do the Rface (90 degree) rotation transform 
## here  the Right-left-bottom (Rlb) facelet rotates to the possn of Right-left-top (Rlt)
## we start with two arrays (one for colours @Rf0, one for numbers @Rf1)  with 9 elements each.
@Rf0=($Rlb[0], $Rlm[0], $Rlt[0],     $Rmb[0], $Rmm[0], $Rmt[0],     $Rrb[0], $Rrm[0], $Rrt[0]);

## now we reallocate the  array elements to the new 
## post (90 degree clockwise) rotation  facelet position.
## Right face is viewed from RIGHT.
## First line example:
## variable $Rlt[0] (=Right-left-top colour) <-- colour of first element in @Rf0 (=Rlb[0]) 
## variable $Rlt[1] (=Right-left-top number) <-- number of first element in @Rf1 (=Rlb[1])
