Game of Life

How does it work

Every cell interacts with its eight neighbours, which are the cells that are horizontally, vertically, or diagonally adjacent.

Rules that govern the game

  • 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.
