Frequency-Based colorization of binary cellular automata

Assign colors to the cellular automata cells according to their flashing frequency.

Plus, some useless scripts.

Implementation: Python2 + ctypes, C++

Scripts

• make_color_animation.py creates sequence of color frames. Parameters are set up in the source.
• singlerot_spectrum.py, singlerot_spectrum_plot.py An experiment with calculating averaged spectrum of oscillations of the cells in the "Single Rotation" rule.
• rca_pygame: Displays animated reversible cellular automaton using Pygame. Not very useful, online simulator recommended: http://dmishin.github.io/js-revca/index.html

Compiling

For better performance, critical parts of the code are written in C++ and used via ctypes. To compile C++ modules, run:

make

On Windows, run:

make.cmd

This build script written for the mingw compiler. Change it apropriately to use different compiler.

Installation

Requrements

• g++: compile C++ modules
• python2.x
• Numpy
