LIFE - R S TOMLINSON - 4 OCT 70

LIFE SIMULATES A COLONY OF ORGANISMS LIVING ON A 72*72
RECTANGULAR GRID. EACH POINT (EXCEPT FOR THOSE ON THE EDGES)
HAS 8 NEIGHBORING POINTS, 4 HORIZONTALLY AND VERTICALLY, AND 4
DIAGONALLY.

THE RULES OF LIFE ARE:

1.	BIRTH
   A NEW ORGANISM IS CREATED ON AN EMPTY GRID POINT IFF EXACTLY
3 NEIGHBORS ARE ADJACENT TO THAT GRID POINT.

2.	DEATH
   AN ORGANISM DIES OF OVERROWDING IF IT HAS 4 OR MORE
NEIGHBORS.
   AN ORGANISM DIES OF ISOLATION IF IT HAS FEWER THAN 2 NEIGHBORS.

3.	DEATHS AND BIRTHS OCCUR SIMULTANEOUSLY.

YOU SPECIFY THE INITIAL CONFIGURATION OF THE COLONY. E.G.:

 ***
*   *
 ***


END INPUT WITH ALTMODE AFTER THE LAST LINE. PRINTOUT WILL CONTINUE
UNTIL THE COLONY DIES, OR A STABLE PATTERN OR LOOP OCCURS.

HAVE FUN.
