My implementation of Conway's Game of Life using Python and matplotlib for the animation.
$ ./game-of-life.py [-x <grid-size-x>] [-y <grid-size-y>] [-i <initial-state>] [-s <animation-speed>]A few initial states are included, which can be specified using the -i option:
random: Fill the grid randomly with live and dead cells.rpentomino: The R-pentomino, a well known "methuselah" seed pattern.diehard: The Diehard seed pattern, which disappears after 130 generations.
