Life

A ruby implementation of Conway's game of life.

Installation

$ gem install life

Usage

To use Life, run the life new command. It can be used with the following options

• --width or -w specifies how many cells wide the game will be
• --height or -h specifies how many cells high the game will be
• --generations or -g specifies how many generations the simulation will run

$ life new -w 3 -h 4 -g 5

This will create a 3x4 game that runs for 5 generations

When first creating a game, you will be prompted to enter which cells are initially alive.

TODO

• Ability to pass initial configuration as command-line option
• Animate instead of displaying all the generations
