The life game, also known as Conways life chess, was the cellular automaton invented by John Horton Conway, a British mathematician, in 1970.
This is a zero player game. It consists of a two-dimensional rectangular world in which each square of the world is inhabited by a living or dead cell.
A cell is dependent on the number of living or dead cells in the next eight squares at the next moment. If there are too many cells alive in adjacent squares, the cell will die at the next moment due to lack of resources. Conversely, if there are too few living cells around, the cell will die too lonely.
