Representing Elementary Cellular Automaton Rules

Each cellular automaton rule can be represented as a decimal number obtained by reading its rule icon in base 2. This Demonstration shows this derivation for the elementary cellular automata, as well as the evolution of each automaton from a single black cell.


Inspired by H. Zenil, "Basic Notions of NKS: Intrinsic Randomness, Exhaustive Searches I," Presentation at NKS Summer School, 2007.
