2d-rewriter is a cellular automata simulator. Key features:
|
|
- Declarative input language for rules and initial patterns definition.
|
|
- Ability to emulate Conway's "Life Game" via proper rules specification.
|
|
- Ability to demonstrate self replicating loops.
|
|
- Patterns are tried in 4 orientations.
|
|
- Cell directions are defined against the pattern orientation.
|
|
- Total number of rules can be substantially decreased by using
|
|
sets and defining patterns using variables.
|
|
- Required run time environment is a minimal X window system installation
|
|
on a POSIX-compatible system (*BSD/Linux/Mac OS X/Cygwin/...).
