A React.js cellular automation demonstration of the famous Game of Life created by the mathematician John Conway. https://cwalke3408.github.io/Game_of_Life/
In 1970, mathematician John Horton Conway constructed an automation demostration called the Game of Life. A grid is construction of cells that may have two states: Died or Alive. Each cell has 8 neighbors and based off the rules determines if the cell live or dies.
Rules to determine if the cells will live or die
- Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by underpopulation.
- Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation.
- Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overpopulation.
- Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.
