My take on core Conway's Game of Life implementation in different languages. This code may not be optimal or even correct.
- Live cell with fewer thatn two neighbours dies from starvation
- Live cell with two or three neighbours survives
- Live cell with more than three neighbours dies from overpopulation
- Dead cell with three neighbours becomes live (reproduction)
| Cell | State | Neighbours | Next State | Rule |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Dead | 2 | Dead | 4 |
| 2 | Dead | 3 | Live | 4 |
| 3 | Live | 1 | Dead | 1 |
| 4 | Live | 2 | Live | 2 |
| 5 | Live | 3 | Live | 2 |
| 6 | Dead | 3 | Live | 4 |
| 7 | Dead | 3 | Live | 4 |
| 8 | Live | 2 | Live | 2 |
| 9 | Dead | 2 | Dead | 4 |
