A typical chaotic "exploding" pattern in Seeds running for 140 generations. Seeds is a cellular automaton in the same family as the Game of Life, initially investigated by Brian Silverman [1] [2] and named by Mirek Wójtowicz. [1] [3] It consists of an infinite two-dimensional grid of cells, each of which may be in one of two states: on or off.
The Game of Life, also known as Conway's Game of Life or simply Life, is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970. [1] It is a zero-player game, [2] [3] meaning that its evolution is determined by its initial state, requiring no further input. One interacts with the Game of Life by creating an initial ...
Evolution of an MSM breeder – a puffer that produces Gosper guns, which in turn emit gliders.. In cellular automata such as Conway's Game of Life, a breeder is a pattern that exhibits quadratic growth, by generating multiple copies of a secondary pattern, each of which then generates multiple copies of a tertiary pattern.
In cellular automata, a methuselah is a small "seed" pattern of initial live cells that take a large number of generations in order to stabilize. More specifically, Martin Gardner defines them as patterns of fewer than ten live cells which take longer than 50 generations to stabilize, [ 1 ] although some patterns that are larger than ten cells ...
There are many naturally occurring still lifes in Conway's Game of Life. A random initial pattern will leave behind a great deal of debris, containing small oscillators and a large variety of still lifes. The most common still life (i.e. that most likely to be generated from a random initial state) is the block. [3]

In Conway's Game of Life, oscillators had been identified and named as early as 1971. [1] Since then it has been shown that finite oscillators exist for all periods. [2] [3] [4] Additionally, until July 2022, the only known examples for period 34 were considered trivial because they consisted of essentially separate components that oscillate at smaller periods.
