GoLPy
GoLPy is an efficient Conway's Game of Life implemented in Python using NumPy.
Example Output
The following GIF can be generated using the command:
life --demo glidergun --out glider_gun.gif --ppc 10 --pos TL -W60 -H40
Installation
pip install golpy
Usage
usage: life [-h] (-i GRID_INPUT | -d DEMO) [-o FILE | --debug-print]
[-W WIDTH] [-H HEIGHT] [-M MAX_GEN] [--ppc PIXELS] [-P POSITION]
[-p]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-i GRID_INPUT, --in GRID_INPUT
Parse the initial grid from <GRID_INPUT>
-d DEMO, --demo DEMO Try one of the provided demos: one of 'glidergun' and
'glidergen'
-o FILE, --out FILE Place the output into <FILE>
--debug-print Print the generated frames directly to the terminal,
instead of saving them
-W WIDTH, --width WIDTH
Width of the grid
-H HEIGHT, --height HEIGHT
Height of the grid
-M MAX_GEN, --max-gen MAX_GEN
Number of generations to simulate
--ppc PIXELS Set the width and the height of each cell to <PIXELS>
-P POSITION, --pos POSITION
One of 'C', 'T', 'B', 'L', 'R', 'TL', 'TR', 'BL', and
'BR'
-p, --profile Measure the performance
