mobileLife review

This version of Conway’s cellular automaton “Game of Life” is specifically designed for Mobile Safari on iPhone and iPod touch.

Life was invented by the mathematician John Conway in 1970. He choose the rules carefully after trying many other possibilities, some of which caused the cells to die too fast and others which caused too many cells to be born. Life balances these tendencies, making it hard to tell whether a pattern will die out completely, form a stable population, or grow forever.

Life is just one example of a cellular automaton, which is any system in which rules are applied to cells and their neighbors in a regular grid. Try with TestiPhone
