This is a Game of Life simulator!
The Game of Life is a life-like cellular automaton program. Each cell has 8 neighbors (the 8 pixels that surround one particular pixel). The state of those 8 neighbors determines the fate of the cell in the center. For example, Conway's Game of Life follows the rules of B3/S23. This means that if a dead cell has exactly 3 neighbors, it comes to life, or is born if you will. If a live cell has exactly 2 or 3 neighbors it survives on to the next generation. All other live cells die off. There are several variations on these rules, each producing their own unique evolution.
This was programmed entirely in Javascript as a way of teaching myself how to program. There are currently seven different rule sets to choose from!
Hope y'all enjoy!
