Life

A Haskell implementation of Conway's Game of Life in a 2D matrix with periodic boundaries.

stack build
stack exec Life <ITERATIONS> <INTIAL_STATE_FILE> <OUTPUT_FOLDER>

ITERATIONS: The amount of discrete iterations to perform on the initial state.
INITIAL_STATE_FILE: Path to a .png file containing the initial state. The image must use black (exactly #000000) pixels to represent alive cells and white (exactly #FFFFFF) to represent dead cells. The size of the initial state determines the size of the simulation.
OUTPUT_FOLDER: The folder where the output images (also .png) are stored. The images are named by their generation (0.png, 1.png, ...) where generation 0 is the initial state. If the directory does not exist it will be created.

There are several example states in the worlds folder.

Note: The pictures use a single pixel to represent a cell. The rendered images will appear very small in some viewers/editors.

Example

stack exec Life 30 worlds/lwss.png out
