The box is a 20 by 20 matrix of cells. In the text box you can enter the number of cycles you want the system to run each time. The Next n Step button starts this process, Reset re-initializes the matrix, Revert returns to previous state. Study the behavior of the system. Propose a model of what it does. Upload your group's findings to the Black Box 1 folder in the assignments section in Brightspace.
This is the numerically-encoded version. You can also use the color-World version.
