#discrete

Topics tagged "discrete".

  • Cellular Automaton

    A grid of cells, each updated by a simple rule that looks only at its neighbors — discrete dynamics that generate astonishing complexity.

  • Conway's Game of Life

    Two rules on a grid of cells produce gliders, oscillators, and self-replicating structure — the most famous cellular automaton.
