Summary

Description Evolution of elementary CA rule 18 and its second order counterpart from the same initial state. Time runs downwards. Note the up/down asymmetric triangles formed by the nonreversible rule.

Perl script

This image was generated by combining two PBM images generated by the following Perl script, which is released into the public domain under the same terms as the image itself. The script, if saved as "capbm.pl", may be invoked as:

perl capbm.pl rule[R] width height [ line1 [ line0 ] ] >output.pbm

where:

  • rule is the Wolfram code for the rule, with "R" appended for second-order rules,
  • width and height are the dimension of the output image in pixels/cells,
  • line1 is the starting configuration as a string of zeros and ones, padded by zeros on both sides if necessary (default = "1"),
  • line0 is the previous generation (for second-order rules) in the same format as line1 (default = ""),
  • output.pbm is the name of the image to create,

and square brackets denote optional parameters.
