Overview

The language is a cellular automata where each cell is a ternary digit, the grid tiles an infinite plane. At each step, except for positive cells, each cell's new value is recalculated:

  • If the sum of its diagonal neighbours is 0, the new value is 0.
  • If the sum of its diagonal neighbours is negative, the new value is positive.
