Every magic cube may be assigned to one of six magic cube classes, based on the cube characteristics.
This new system is more precise in defining magic cubes. But possibly of more importance, it is consistent for all orders and all dimensions of magic hypercubes.
Minimum requirements for a cube to be magic are: All rows, columns, pillars, and 4 triagonals must sum to the same value.

Famous quotes containing the words magic and/or classes:
“The work of adult life is not easy. As in childhood, each step presents not only new tasks of development but requires a letting go of the techniques that worked before. With each passage some magic must be given up, some cherished illusion of safety and comfortably familiar sense of self must be cast off, to allow for the greater expansion of our distinctiveness.”
—Gail Sheehy (20th century)
“One marvels why ... the middle classes still insist on so much discomfort for their children at such expense to themselves.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
