can anyone help me get the code for the Cellular automata model which Implements and visualizes 1000 generations starting from a random initial states of 0 and 1. The size of the square universe should be user provided.

The rules to update the next generation is: 1. A cell will die in the next generation if 4 or more of its neighbours are dead at present time.

2. A cell will come back to life in the next generation if more than 4 of its neighbours are alive at present time.

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

Assuming 8-connectivity:

Count the number of live neighbours. If it is 1, 2, or 3, then the cell will be dead next generation. If it is 5, 6, 7, or 8, then the cell will be alive next generation. If it is 4, then the cell switches between dead and alive.
