I simulate Conway's Game of Life for my final project for my very first computer programming class' final project. Class name'a Intro to Programming: Java Edition CIS 36a. The first constructor (vanilla) started with a random initialization of 15% of the gameboard being alive cells. For the curious, here are the full rules that occur at each step in time. They cause the following transitions to occur: 1.) Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if caused by under-population. 2.) Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation. 3.) Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by over-population. 4.) Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.
