Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 1.5 Has a simpler notation for the range-1 case
  2. 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 via Moore isotropic non-totalistic notation
  3. 3.0 3.1 Consecutive birth/survival transitions (Larger than Life) only for ranges above 2
  4. Consecutive birth/survival transitions (Larger than Life) only for ranges above 5
  5. 5.0 5.1 5.2 5.3 5.4 5.5 5.6 5.7 via Weighted Life
