# Wolfram
## Description
Wolfram is a software that displays the output of a one-dimensional cellular automaton, named after Stephen Wolfram, the creator of Mathematica. The software is written in Haskell. It is a command-line application.
## Installation
To install Wolfram, follow these steps:
1. Install stack from https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/README/
2. Execute `make`
3. And use it, for example: `./wolfram --rule 110 --lines 20`
## Usage
Wolfram provides a variety arguments to customize the output. The following table describes the available arguments:
- `--rule` - The rule to use for the cellular automaton. Must be an integer between 0 and 255.
- `--lines` - The number of lines to output. Must be an integer greater than 0.
- `--start` - The starting configuration of the automaton. Must be a string of 0s and 1s.
- `--window` - The number of cells to display at once. Must be an integer greater than 0.
- `--move` - The number of cells to move the window after each step. Must be an integer greater than 0.
To have a gui interface, you can compile with `make gui` and then execute `./wolfram-gui`.
But be sure to have SFML installed, you can install it with `sudo apt-get install libsfml-dev`.
## Screenshots
`./wolfram --rule 102 --lines 60 --window 125 --start 0 --move 0`
`wolfram --rule 90 --lines 60 --window 125 --start 0 --move 0`
