Conway's Game of Life

Conway's Game of Life is a fun 'cellular automaton', where single celled beings live or die depending on how crowded their surroundings are. The resulting pattern is both fun and mesmerising - seeming to have a life of its own.

Because Resolver One has a cell based user interface, it is perfect for implementing 'the Game of Life' with; which is exactly what Jonathan Hartley has done. (Press F9 to recalculate and see the cells change.)

It includes a Python library that stores and calculates the state of the 'grid', and could be used to create a game of life using any Python or IronPython compatible user interface.
