Explore all 256 Wolfram elementary CA rules. Wolfram's 4 classes: uniform, periodic, chaotic, complex (rule 110 is Turing-complete). Navigate rule space and see how behavior changes.
Wolfram's 256 elementary CAs: cell i at t+1 depends on cells i-1,i,i+1 at t — 8 neighborhoods, 2^8=256 rules. Class 1 (e.g. R0): uniform. Class 2 (R4): periodic. Class 3 (R30): pseudo-random, used in Mathematica's RNG. Class 4 (R110): complex/gliders — Turing complete (Cook 2004). Rule 110 complexity near the "edge of chaos" (Langton's parameter λ).
