# --------------------------------------------------------------------- #
# On a rectangular grid, let each "cell" be either "living" or "dead". #
# Designate a living cell with a dot, and a dead one with a blank space.#
# Begin with an arbitrarily drawn dot-and-blank grid, #
#+ and let this be the starting generation, "generation 0". #
# Determine each successive generation by the following rules: #
# 1) Each cell has 8 neighbors, the adjoining cells #
#+ left, right, top, bottom, and the 4 diagonals. #
# 123 #
# 4*5 #
# 678 #
# #
# 2) A living cell with either 2 or 3 living neighbors remains alive. #
# 3) A dead cell with 3 living neighbors becomes alive (a "birth"). #
SURVIVE=2 #
BIRTH=3 #
# 4) All other cases result in a dead cell for the next generation. #
