Conway's Game of Life is a zero-player game developed by John Conway in 1970 where cells live on an infinite grid. The cells can be either alive or dead, and their evolution is determined by the initial grid configuration. The rules are that any live cell with fewer than 2 or more than 3 live neighbors dies, while any dead cell with exactly 3 live neighbors becomes alive.

3. Rules
Any live cell with fewer than 2 live neighbors
dies, as if caused by under-population
Any live cell with 2 or 3 live neighbors lives
on to the next generation
Any live cell with more than 3 live neighbors
dies, as if by over-crowding
Any dead cell with exactly 3 live neighbors
becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction
