Game of Life

Conway's Game of Life is a simulation of a mathematical evolution from an initial state of 'cells' on a grid. A cell can be either 'dead' or 'alive' and in each generation of the game, a cell will determine its state based on the state of the cells around it. This wikipedia article describes the rules of the Game of Life.

To Use

The Game of Life is a 'zero-player' game meaning the user's interaction with the basic rules of the game is very minimal. In this version, the user can pause the game, clear the board, and re-randomize the initial seeding of the board to watch the evolution of life start over again.
