Conway's Game Of Life

Overview

In my preparation for the powder toy game, I experimented with cellular automata.

A simple rule set can create an interesting and almost organic simulation.

Final Product

Key Takeaways

• I learned pragma once. This pre-process stops the compiler from recompiling the file multiple times.

• I learned how include works. I learned when you use include. The compiler basically copy's and pastes the code into that file.

• Modularity. An goal I had in this project is trying to make the components, like gird and render window, modular. I this would make it easier to reuse this code in my other projects.
