Wolfram's Cellular Automata in Node

By Liam Ilan

Wolfram's Cellular Automata is a form of 1 dimensional cellular automata in which all possible rules are encoded into one byte as described here: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/CellularAutomaton.html

This is an implementation of this system in node.
