  2. The Game of Life, also known as Conway's Game of Life or simply Life, is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970. [1] It is a zero-player game , [ 2 ] [ 3 ] meaning that its evolution is determined by its initial state, requiring no further input.

  3. Aug 1, 2017 · Well, it’s a snapshot of Conway’s game of life which was devised in the 1970’s by mathematician John Conway. The game is fairly simple to implement, in fact, it is often given to first year CS students as an exercise.

  4. Dec 28, 2020 · The Game of Life motivated the use of cellular automata in the rich field of complexity science, with simulations modeling everything from ants to traffic, clouds to galaxies.

  5. Apr 4, 2014 · He is perhaps best known for inventing the Game of Life, a cellular automaton that evolved into existence after years and years of fiddling, this time in the mathematics common room at the University of Cambridge, where Conway studied as an undergraduate, received his doctorate, and subsequently taught until 1986.

  6. 4 days ago · Conway’s Game of Life (CGOL) is striking because it is simultaneously one of the simplest cellular automata in structure and yet, one of the most complex in behaviour. ([Berkelamp et al. 2004, Berkelamp et al. 2004]) ([Schiff. 2011, Schiff. 2011]). As the name suggests, CGOL is exceptionally subjectively lifelike, and yet the basic essence of ...

  7. Apr 1, 1999 · Conway showed the game of Life to his friend Martin Gardner, the longtime author of Scientific American’s Mathematical Games column. Gardner described the game in his October 1970 column, and...

  8. The Game of Life is a cellular-automaton, zero player game, developed by John Conway in 1970. The game is played on an infinite grid of square cells, and its evolution is only determined by its initial state.
