"""Game of Life simulation.

Conway's game of life is a classic cellular automation created in 1970 by John
Conway. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life

Exercises

1. Can you identify any Still Lifes, Oscillators, or Spaceships?
2. How can you make the simulation faster? Or bigger?
3. How would you modify the initial state?
4. Try changing the rules of life :)
