Description

GameOfLife is an implementation of John Conway's Game of Life.

The game is a cellular automaton where each cell is either dead (grey) or alive (yellow) and will change state in the next tick if any of the following rules are fulfilled:

  • An alive cell will die by underpopulation if it has fewer than two neighbors.
  • An alive cell will die by overpopulation if it has more than three neighbors.
  • A dead cell will come alive by reproduction if it has exactly three neighbors.

Otherwise, it will keep its old state.
