aservet1 / the-game-of-life

core C++ game of life tool that im designing to be useful by any program, as the core C++ simply takes a starting file and writes the output of so many steps of the game of life, given some parameters (right now the only special parameter, other than a flip book play by play of the process, is a spontaneous generation rate)

the-game-of-life

my implementation of Conway's Game of Life

core C++ game of life tool that im designing to be useful by any program, as the core C++ simply takes a starting file and writes the output of so many steps of the game of life, given some parameters (right now the only special parameter, other than a flip book play by play of the process, is a spontaneous generation rate).

help

Get help on what the command line arguments entail with .\gameoflife.exe --help

build

g++ gameoflife.cpp -o gameoflife. It's all contained in one file, so I haven't made a makefile for this project or do any rigorous project structuring or anything yet.

platforms

I have conditional compilation of C++ for Linux and Windows. Contact me if you want me to add Mac support and I can look through where than needs to happen.
