CellLab: Cellular Automata (VB 6.0)
The increasing prominence of computers has led to a new way of looking at the world. This view sees nature as a form of computation. That is, we treat objects as simple computers, each obeying its own set of laws.
The "cellular automaton" extends this analogy to provide
a way of viewing whole populations of interacting "cells",
each of which is itself a computer (automaton). By building appropriate
rules into a cellular automaton, we can simulate many kinds of complex
behaviour, ranging from the motion of fluids governed by the Navier-Stokes
equations to outbreaks of starfish on a coral reef.
This is the source code of the Program CellLab. The program is an experimentation toolkit for a 2D cellular automata. Cell Laboratory basically separates the rules and the field where action is happening. It offers customizable rule and field system. It means, a user is able to run the cellular automata using any of him custom rule. This program offers Save/Open functionality for both rules and field.

You are requested to use my Cellular Automata system by testing it for new applications and problems. Please report to me if any one tests the system or enhances it or debugs it
