Still lives/Oscillators as equations

[Saka]

wwei23 has been doing something like this and gave me the idea to start this, so, I'd never thought I'd say it...
T- T- T- *breathes* Tha- Th- Th- Tha- *deep breath* Thaaaa- aa- a- aa- *very deep breath* -anks

For example:
(Table*3)+((Table*-1)^(Table^Eater 1))+(Bun~3)+(Table^Carrier)=

Code: Select all

x = 14, y = 13, rule = B3/S23
3b2o$3bo$2obo$bob2ob2o$bo2bobobob2o$2o2bobobobo$bob2obobobo$bo2bobobob
2o$2o2bobobobo2bo$bob2o2bo4b2o$bo2bo$2o2bobo$5b2o!

Basically:
() for each "Component"
* for extension of component, -1 for flip (relative to the "majority")
+ for placing component side-by-side
^ for siamese/merge
You may also have noticed ~, it means extension by cells, not by replicating and joining it. We need a new symbol, any designs? My ideas so far:

[wwei23]

I would call it a (Table siamese table siamese table siamese table) on (Table siamese flip table siamese flip table siamese eater 1[Note that I said eater 1 and not flip eater 1. Why? Go to note 1 and see for yourself.]) on (Long long long R-bee) on (Table siamese parallel aircraft carrier[Note 2])
Note 1: If it were not flip, this would happen:

Code: Select all

#C Table siamese table added for compactness.
x = 8, y = 13, rule = LifeHistory
3.2A$3.A$2A.A$.A.2A.2E$.A2.A.E$2A2.A.E$.A.2A.2E$.A2.A.E$2A2.A.E$.A.2A
.2E$.A.A$2A.A$.2A!

Note 2:
A line parallel to the Table part can be traced between it and the Pre-block part:

Code: Select all

x = 41, y = 80, rule = BS012345678History

Whereas here it's perpendicular:

20.20A$20.20A!

The point is, Saka's idea is much more compact.
