Automata Game Based Projects
Introduction by Francis Glassborow
Automata Games are not really games in our normal everyday sense but they are a fascinating area to explore if you have access to programming with a graphical display. Most of the projects given in this section can programmed in C++ using my Playpen Library. This is available on the 'You Can Do It!' part of this site.
Chris Theis has provided a downloadable PDF file containing a short introduction to Cellular Automata which is the two dimensional form.
One dimensional automata are also interesting if you output successive generations one below the other.
