This Game Of Life simulation was created by Gary Jenkins and Willie Nelson for
CS451 (Programming Paradigms) during the Fall semester of 1998 at the
University of New Mexico.
The buttons on the Java applet above do the
following:
STEP: Single steps the simulation - this gives total
control of how quickly the simulation runs.
RESET: Resets the
simulation to a completely lifeless and matterless state.
SUN^: This
increases the level of the SUN, which generates matter that can be converted
into living beings.
SUN LEVEL: This shows the current level of the SUN
value - it is NOT a text input box.
SUNv: This decreases the level of
the SUN.
DEATH ON/OFF: This toggles the 'Faces of Death' feature - each
dying entity flashes one screen shot in red as its last gasp of life...
