Lesson 2.3 - Ruleset Exploration: Life by your own rules
In this lesson, there are guides to help expirment with rulesets to create interesting CA
Learning Objectives
By the end of Lesson 2.3, you should be able to...
- Devlop intuition for how rules affect pattern stability
- Create different cellular automata rulesets
- Gain understanding of why Conway's game of life is unique
Maze Generator
With some modifications to the rules, these cells can create a maze-like pattern. Experiment and try to find it yourself! When complete, it should something like this:
Can't find it? Feel free to use the hints below:
Cave Generator
Some video games use cellular automata to create cave-like levels. Experiment to find this ruleset. When complete, it should look something like this:
