Examples

data(conway)
    plot(sim(conway))

    # more interesting start conditions
    m <- matrix(0, 40, 40)
    m[5:35,19:21] <-1
    init(conway) <- m
    plot(sim(conway), col=c("white", "green"), axes=FALSE)

    # change survival rules
    parms(conway) <- list(srv=c(3,4), gen=c(3,4))
    plot(sim(conway), col=c("white", "green"), axes=FALSE)
    init(conway) <- matrix(0, 10, 10)
    fixInit(conway) # enter some "1"
    sim(conway, animate=TRUE, delay=100)
