Life game(Large size)


Introduction

There is a lattice like a chess board, and there live some creatures there. In a cell, only one creature can live. When there is an inhabitant, the cell is "on"(blue), and if vacant, we call the cell is "off"(yellow).


Rule

There are eight neighborhood cells around a cell. The creatures increase or decrease in the next step according to the following rule.

  • If a cell is "on";
    When two or three of eight cells are "on" ,the cell remains "on".
    In other cases, the cell becomes "off".

  • If a cell is "off";
    When three of eight cells are "on" ,the cell turns to "on".
    In other cases, the cell remains "off".
