=== Algorithm Description ===
Comway's Game of Life is a algorithmic representation of cellular automation developed by John Conway in 1970. The game is played on an infinite two-dimensional rectangular grid of cells. Each cell has two probable states, alive or dead. Depending on the state of that cell's 8 neighbors, the state of each cell changes each turn of the game, constituting a unique generation on every computation . Neighbors of a cell are cells that touch that cell, either horizontal, vertical, or diagonal from that cell.
