When attempting to rotate in a triangular rule, the selection polygon attempts to rotate at a 90 degree angle rather than a 60 degree angle. This changes the pattern, as can be seen if you rotate this hexagon: x = 3, y = 2, rule = B/S5L b3o$b3o! I believe this issue is caused by attempting to select...

Here's a function that becomes large both in function size and output size: the Ackermann–Péter function . (technically altered, but with same outputs) Ackermann–Péter function A(m,n): For positive integers m and n, A(0,0)=1 A(0,n)=n+1 A(m,0)=A(m-1,1) A(m,n)=A(m-1,A(m,n-1)) (This is not the fastest ...

Since speed represents cells per generation, it is always represented with positive integers. "c/2.5" is written as 2c/5.
