ConwaysGameOfLife

Welcome to your new gem! In this directory, you'll find the files you need to be able to package up your Ruby library into a gem. Put your Ruby code in the file lib/conways_game_of_life. To experiment with that code, run bin/console for an interactive prompt.

TODO: Delete this and the text above, and describe your gem

Usage

Examples to start this script are shown in the bin/start_manual and bin/start_random scripts in the project. To test the manual entry of the cell data run the below command on your terminal:

bin/start_manual

To test the randomly generated cell data run the below command on your terminal:

bin/start_random

Possible Improvements

  • Get out of the infinite loop when nothing is changing between consecutive frames.
  • Use a ruby graphical interface such as by using gofu gem which is a wrapper to build 2D games in ruby.
  • Use the script in a ruby on rails application to return the next tick for a board via an endpoint.
  • could improve the design of the classes.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
