The following diagram shows the serial implementation of The Game of Life, running in a 500x500 matrix. Every generation indicates a generation along with the number of live cells. Generation 1 has been hard coded with a fixed amount of live cells to initiate the process and then the rule class determines the number of live cells in coming generations.
