2.4 Cellular Automata Challenge

What is a Cellular Automata?
A Cellular Automata (CA) consists of many cells that form a list or matrix where users can take initial states and apply specific rules to determine future or final states. The state of each cell is typically represented by the color of the cell.

Instructions

  1. Explore 1-Dimensional Elementary Cellular Automata: Start with a 1-Dimensional Elementary Cellular Automata (1D ECA). Below is a link that will take you to a simulation in a free play mode where you can explore how the model works.
