Game of Game of Life

This is my attempt at using a genetic algorithm to create an optimal starting set.

TODO:

• Currently no 'mating' only mutation (Emulates asexual cells??)
• Change tracking - Images of the leader are currently stored
• Fitness graphing - DONE in a roundabout hackish way
• Better gif creation. Currently using GIMP manually

Fitness Algorithms

0:

This algorithm simply multiplies the number of iterations that life has survived with the amount of life.

1:

This algorithm multiplies the number of iterations with the inverse proportion of starting life to 'finishing' life. This theoretically encourages a smaller start point and more 'growth'

Examples

• Leader for fitness algorithm 0

• Leader for fitness algorithm 1

Smaller examples:

• Leader for fitness algorithm 0

• Leader for fitness algorithm 1

Graph of Fitness of Population

(Please keep in mind that all evolutions have various random factors, so any differences in these graphs [or any images here] may be purely coincidental)

• Algorithm 0

• Algorithm 1
