Milescript Demos - Life Demo
The Game of Life is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970 (Wikipedia). Organisms live, die, or are born based on four simple rules...
- A live cell with less than two neighbors dies by starvation.
- A live cell with four or more neighbors dies by over-population.
- A live cell with two or three neighbors survives.
- A dead cell with exactly three neighbors becomes alive.
To change things up a bit, we've added our own flavor to the game.
- A live cell changes color as it 'ages.' A new cell is yellow, a one cycle old cell is blue, a two cycle old cell is green, a three cycle old cell is orange, and the oldest cells are red.
- With Randomness Enabled, there is 0.5% chance that a live cell with exactly three neighbors dies and a 0.5% chance that a dead cell with exactly two neighbors becomes alive.
- The Screen wraps, creating an "unbounded" universe for the Organisms.
This demo illustrates the following Milescript features:
- Code Condensation
- Documentation Generation
- Generic Types
- Uses Libraries LibDom, LibUtil, LibPixelEngine
