Glider (Conway's Life)

Generalized Conway Game of Life - SmoothLife5

Glider forms can be very different, but they seem to share a basic principle: something thick at the front, something thin at the back and a hole in the middle. code available at sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/smoothlife/files/

Game of Life: Gosper glider gun

The Gosper glider gun is a pattern in the Game of Life. The Game of Life is a cellular automaton invented by John Conway in the late 1960s. I write about it in my book Alex Through the Looking-Glass: How Life Reflects Numbers and Numbers Reflect Life: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/14088177

Generalized Conway Game of Life - SmoothLife2

The method allows for stable structures. However stable structures and gliders at the same time are difficult to get. At least starting off the random initialisation.

Generalized Conway Game of Life - SmoothLife1

I have generalized Conway's Game of Life to arbitrary lattice topologies. Gliders can now go in any direction. This is achieved by a ring shaped kernel with an inner and an outer radius, anti aliasing and smooth step functions. I called it SmoothLife. Download source code and Windows exec

What are Cellular Automata?

Cellular Automata are a fantastic demonstration of how a simple set of rules can elicit a complex emergent behaviour. In this video I show John Conway's Game Of Life implemented in quick and simple C++ at the command line. Github: https://github.com/OneLoneCoder/Javidx9/blob/master/Consol
