ToDo:

• Implement main automata
  • One Dimensional Automata
    • Rule 30
    • Rule 110
  • Two Dimensional Automata
    • Toothpick Sequence
    • Langton's Ant
    • Seeds
• Implement image engine
• Implement ruleset creation dialog(s)
• Implement ruleset JSON I/O

Organization

Going forward, I think it's best if we figure out who is specifically doing what. Below is a list of the things that are going to (preferably) be in the program - whoever wants to take care of any of these features, put your name beside it:

• Automaton implementation (Sean) [I think I commandeered this one by accident... o_o]
  • 1D Automata
    • Rule 30 (done)
    • Rule 110 (done)
  • 2D Automata
    • Toothpick sequence
    • Langton's ant
    • Seeds (done)
  • Optional (these don't have rule strings and may or may not actually be implemented)
    • Rock-paper-scissors automaton
    • Nonlinear voter model
    • Hodgepodge machine (done)
• Image preview engine
• Image saving engine (Sean)
• Ruleset creation dialog (Charlie)
• Initial state dialog
• JSON I/O (Charlie)
• Automaton/JSON compatibility
