veccell - cellular automata - power gliders

===========================================

*veccell* is a pet project to toy with `Cellular Automata`_ and the `Go`_

programming language.

Building

--------

::

   # get the sources

   $ git clone https://github.com/virtualtam/veccell.git

   # go >= 1.11: enable module support

   $ export GO111MODULE=on

   # build binaries

   $ make build

Automatons

----------

- ``elementary``: an `Elementary Cellular Automaton`_

- ``game-of-life``: a simple implementation of `Conway's Game of Life`_

- ``game-of-life-dx``: a simple implementation of `Conway's Game of Life`_, with

  additional bells and whistles!

Controls

--------

====== =====================

Key    Action

====== =====================

ctrl+c quit

q      quit

r      randomize state

up     increase render delay

down   decrease render delay
