Now, I've played with the mlife object from Maxlib a little bit but not enough to understand it. I do however, understand normal one dimensional cellular automata. It was 1 am and I was bored so I decided to try and construct one as an abstraction. The only external you'll need is Zexy as I take advantage of [makesymbol]. The advantage of this, as you'll see, is that unlike the mlife object, you can resize this one to meet your needs. By resize, I mean set it up to use any number of cells.
