Conway's Game of Life in Rust

Rationale

Just a bit of retro fun as a rust learning exercise.

Pre-requisites

Linux (including WSL)

Ensure you have libcsfml-dev and libsfml-dev installed.

If you are running this from WSL, and you see errors like the following,

Failed to create an OpenGL context for this window
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)

then try doing export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=0 in your bash shell first.

Mac

brew install sfml and brew install csfml (install homebrew if you haven't already)

then export SFML_INCLUDE_DIR=/System/Volumes/Data/opt/homebrew/include and export SFML_LIBS_DIR=/System/Volumes/Data/opt/homebrew/lib

Building

Just the usual cargo build.

Running

Just the usual cargo run.

Running unit tests

Just the usual cargo test.
