Demo of Don Hopkins' CAM6 Cellular Automata Machine simulator. Live App: Github Repo: Javacript Source Code: Comments from the code: // This code originally started life as a CAM6 simulator written in C // and Forth, based on the original CAM6 hardware and compatible with // the brilliant Forth software developed by Toffoli and Margolus. But // then it took on a life of its own (not to mention a lot of other CA // rules), and evolved into supporting many other cellular automata // rules and image processing effects. Eventually it was translated to // C and Python, and then more recently it has finally been // rewritten from the ground up in JavaScript. // The CAM6 hardware and Forth software for defining rules and // orchestrating simulations is thoroughly described in this wonderful // book by Tomm
