This is my recreation of Conway's Game of Life, this is my first attempt in creating a cellular automation program
Make sure you have Python 3 installed, and then do pip install pygame. After that, just run the main.py!
We have a grid, each cell contain either 1, representing alive, and 0, representing not alive.
There are 4 rules:
- Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbors dies, as if by underpopulation.
- Any live cell with two or three live neighbors lives on to the next generation.
- Any live cell with more than three live neighbors dies, as if by overpopulation.
- Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbors becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.
With these 4 rules, each frame checks each cell for those conditions and react accordingly. Eventually, given the limited screen size, all cells will reach its static state.
- allows users to click and drag the mouse to 'create chaos' by creating and moving a live cell!
