Hello tout le monde,

Je suis nouveau sur le forum mais mon anglais est plus qu'aproximatif...
Si quelqu'un pouvait traduire ce qu'il suit il me serait d'un grand secour, merci !

Connaissez-vous le Jeu de la vie (The Game of Life), un automate cellulaire du mathematicien Anglais J. H. Conway ?

Un lien utile : http://en.wikipedia....'s_Game_of_Life

Apr?s avoir admir? une version de ce programme tourner sur Ti-89+ je suis tr?s ?tonn? de voir que personne ne c'est pench? sur le sujet sur Classpad 300 - et cela d'autant plus que la rapidit? du langage lua, l'interface et la taille de l'ecran pourraient offrir d'exellentes conditions d'utilisation !

J'ai moi m?me tent? ? plusieurs reprises de creer un tel programme, mais aucun projet n'a vraiment aboutit. Il faut dire que mon niveau en programmation n'est pas exellent...

J'ai besoin de votre aide, pensez-vous qu'un tel programme est r?alisable sur Classpad ? Merci bien !

P.S. : Tres beau boulot Orwell !

I'll try to translate it first:

Hello everyone,

Do you know the Game of Life, a cellular automaton from J. H. Conway?
Here is a useful link: http://en.wikipedia....'s_Game_of_Life

I saw a nice implementation of this program on a Ti-98+ calculator, and I was amazed that nobody had already tried to do the same on the ClassPad, since the fastness of the Lua language, the interface and the screen's size could offer some excellent conditions for it!

I tried myself several times to create such a program, but none of my project was really completed. (I must say that my programming skills aren't that good).
I need your help, do you think that such a program can be made on the ClassPad? Thanks a lot!

In fact I think that someone already thought about it, I can't remember who it was however
If I remember well there was a problem with the function "draw.pxltest" to implement the Game, but I think it has been solved now... This is the kind of program that we should be able to do with CPLua

I wanted to make this program...but I don't have a lot of time..and I'm always busy with others thing...Grayscales, timers...and now I've found how to use the buzzer and I make a library to make several sounds...
So I'll make a game of life...whan I'll have time...and in c++!!
Good luck!

Alexandre

Thank you !
Here is the link for "Le jeu de la vie" on Ti-89+ : http://leiber.free.f...free.fr/ti/vie/
See you later !

[Kilburn]

I am working on it in C++... But it would need some speed optimizations with ASM...

"Je suis en train de travailler dessus en C++... Mais j'aurais besion d'optimisations de vitesse en ASM... "

Gaumerie... are you here?????

PS:I like this game, this is very interesting. For the moment, in my program, a generation takes 1 second!!! Very slow! I'll try to add some optimizations...

[Kilburn]

OK it's perfect, I solved the optimisation problem!

I'm building the program with some members (included Gaumerie who could add some grayscales ) of my programming team CAPS (=Casio Application Programming Share). When it will be stable, I'll release the first version.

Hi,
the first version of the Game of Life can be downloaded on this website : CAPS Team website
It is just a demonstration version but you can already put cells on the screen, change the rule by clicking on the arrow at the top right of the screen,...

[Major]

Congratulations ! Exellent travail !

J'attend avec impatience la prochaine version

[Alexis]

Merci
Dans la prochaine version, on devrait pouvoir ouvrir et sauvegarder des motifs, zoomer. La partie pour rentrer des lois est d?j? bien entam?e.

In the next version, you will be able to open and save pattern, to enter every rules you want, to zoom...

[numerix]

I will Download it when i will be at at home!

[TacoFred]

what is the Game of Life? a maze game? O.o

[Tchernoben]

?a ? l'air sympa, je vais voir

It seem to be fun, I'll download it

What is the Game of Life?

You must read the information at http://en.wikipedia....'s_Game_of_Life .


And please answer me: Is there any other place which I can download the game from? For some reason I cannot download it from the given web-site.

[Alexis]

Sorry, the team has now a new url : capsteam.org

[betoe]

Good job Alexis. But please upload it to the file sharing of this site (look in the top of this webpage), its faster and more people could download it from there.
