Re: Thread for your unsure discoveries

Here I found a small version of the Windmill

x = 10, y = 6, rule = B3/S23

Re: Computer Ideas

Its possible to make a Nand-Gate is Life. So you can build any combinatorial circuit you want. How about building a encoder that receives 8 glider streams as an input and has 3 glider as an output (the gliders are now coded binary and not unary). Then an decoder coverts the 3 gliders streams into 8 ...

Re: Thread for your unsure discoveries

This p4 oszillators is very small, but not in the wiki. I am sure that somebody knows its name.

x = 12, y = 4, rule = B3/S23

OK thanks,
and this is a variation of Fumarole?

Re: Thread for your unsure discoveries

This is Octagons 2 big brother. The nice thing is that the 4 parts always show the figure at different period. x = 25, y = 15, rule = B3/S23 5bo$3bo2bob3o$3bo2bobob2o$b2obobobobobo$3bo2bobo2b3o6b2o$o5bobo4bo5bo 2bo$b5o3b5o4bo4bo$17bo6bo$b5o3b5o3bo6bo$o5bobo5bo3bo4bo$3o3bobo2bobo5b o2bo$2bo3bobobo2bo...

Re: New Period 3 Billiard table discovered

The program essentially grows patterns like crystals that must obey certain rules, fixing the structure in the center, and experimenting with the edges, and fixing them later as the edges expand. The next smallest ones currently known are 18 bits (pseudo-object - LWSS on LWSS), so unless you have a...

Re: New Period 3 Billiard table discovered

OK, I looked up in Dean Hickerson's collecton and found my oscillators, but not the 9x9 Smiley. As you wrote a programm, did it use simple brute force on a given area or can it use a sort of backtracking , which also finds all solutions, but much faster. By the way i wrote a simple still life finder...

Re: New Period 3 Billiard table discovered

Of course here is the C-Code for the programm. Its in German. The main idea is that you first create the surrounding. Then it uses brute force and tries every possible configuration of cells inside the box except the 4 corners which must always be dead cells. Then it calculates the next 10 Positions...

Re: Glider Guns of large periods

Great work!
Can you also make a "Gliderfilter" with does not destroy 1 of 2 gliders, but 2 of 3 or any other prime number. This would be cool to create glider-guns with any period
