+# Instructions
+
+After each generation, the cells interact with their eight neighbors, which are cells adjacent horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
+
+The following rules are applied to each cell:
+
+- Any live cell with two or three live neighbors lives on.
+- Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbors becomes a live cell.
+- All other cells die or stay dead.
+
+Given a matrix of 1s and 0s (corresponding to live and dead cells), apply the rules to each cell, and return the next generation.

+# Introduction
+
+[Conway's Game of Life][game-of-life] is a fascinating cellular automaton created by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970.
+
+The game consists of a two-dimensional grid of cells that can either be "alive" or "dead."
+
+After each generation, the cells interact with their eight neighbors via a set of rules, which define the new generation.
