A Variation on Conway’s Game of Life Winston Lee EPS 109
The Game of Life A cellular automation developed by British mathematician John Conway in 1970 Based on a 2d grid of square cells Each cell is either in an alive or dead state Dead cells with 3 alive neighbors become alive Cells with 2 or 3 neighbors stay alive Above rules are encoded as “B3/S23” Now With Hexagons Replace the 2d grid with hexagons – 6 neighbors now! Challenge: Mapping coordinates to hexagonal spaces More variation in rules, ex: “HighLife” which is B36/S23
