Conway's Game of Life, a cellular automaton conceived by mathematician John Conway in 1970, unfolds on an infinite, two-dimensional grid. Each cell exists in one of two states: alive or dead. The game progresses through generations, with each cell's fate determined by its eight neighboring cells (horizontally, vertically, and diagonally adjacent).
The initial arrangement constitutes the first generation. Subsequent generations arise from the simultaneous application of these rules to every cell:
- Survival: A living cell remains alive if it has two or three live neighbors.
- Birth: A dead cell becomes alive if it has exactly three live neighbors.
Conway experimented with numerous rule variations before settling on this specific set. Some variations lead to rapid population extinction, others to unrestrained expansion. The chosen rules reside near the critical point between these extremes, a region often associated with complex and fascinating patterns where expansion and extinction forces are delicately balanced.
