User Summary

Following Conway's Game of Life.
Draw patterns to evolve the cells based on a few simple rules:
Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if caused by under-population.
Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives on to the next generation.
Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.
Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.

The game was written by Alan R. Miller, where a later version was written by William Englander and published by BYTE Publications, Inc and generally have a few different features. The Altair 680 version was by Peter Smart.
