Simulation algorithms

To run simulation, install vite globally (yarn global add vite) and run vite command inside the simulation directory.

Boids

Boids simulates the flocking behaviour of birds. It relies on three rules:

• separation: steer to avoid crowding local flockmates
• alignment: steer towards the average heading of local flockmates
• cohesion: steer to move towards the average position (center of mass) of local flockmates

Conway's Game of Life

Conway's Game of Life is a cellular automaton. It consists in a two-dimensional grid containing cells. Each cell is either alive or dead. It relies on four rules:

• birth: a dead cell emerges if it has more at least 2 alive neighbours
• death by overpopulation: a living cell dies by overpopulation if it has more than 3 alive neighbours
• death by underpopulation: a living cell dies by underpopulation if it has less than 2 alive neighbours
• statu quo: every other cell stays in its previous state
