Lesson 2.2 - Conway's Game of Life
Throughout this lesson, we will investigate unique patterns in Conway's game of life then, let you play with the simulation, then modify it!
Learning Objectives
By the end of Lesson 2.2, you should be able to...
- Identify the period of a pattern
- Learn terminology for classes of patterns
- Create different cellular automata rulesets
- Gain understanding of why Conway's game of life is unique
Conway's Game of Life
This interactive simulation is a playground for cellular life!
Try clicking and dragging your mouse around on the board to create new life! Controls for the simulation are at the top of the panel.
