Game of Life

Description

This repository features an implementation of Conway's Game of Life, a cellular automaton devised by John Conway, using the C programming language and Raylib graphics library. This interactive, real-time simulation allows you to watch cells evolve over time based on a set of simple rules. You can start, pause, and modify the grid seamlessly, making it ideal for educational and entertainment purposes.

Dependencies

• C Compiler (gcc, clang)
• Raylib

Usage

• The simulation starts as soon as you run the program.
• Cells are drawn as white squares on a black background.

Code Explanation

• setup(): Initializes the grid with random live or dead cells.
• countNeighbors(int x, int y): Counts the number of live neighbors around a given cell.
• update(): Updates the grid based on the Game of Life rules.
• draw(): Draws the current state of the grid on the screen.
