2 //Game of life 0.3 (2D Cellular automata example implementation)
5 * The Rules (THX2John Conway):
6 * For a space that is 'populated':
7 * Each cell with one or no neighbors dies, as if by loneliness.
8 * Each cell with four or more neighbors dies, as if by overpopulation.
9 * Each cell with two or three neighbors survives.
10 * For a space that is 'empty' or 'unpopulated':
11 * Each cell with three neighbors becomes populated.
13 * http://www.bitstorm.org/gameoflife/ -Online\offline java based version
14 * http://www.bitstorm.org/gameoflife/lexicon/ -Nice lexicon of lifes, that you can test on this simulator
16 * $life contains array of strings, where every character is one cell
17 * there is also function to load life from file (for more lifes see lexicon)
18 * i included two lifes life.txt - simple small life and glider.txt - the most classical of all, it become symbol of hackership
20 * for better experience please resize console window to size of life, that you are running.
22 * PHP+AsciiART == Rox!!!
