4. Cellular Automata and Fractal Evolution

The Game of Life - the And Operation

Suppose A and B are streams of gliders, as usual, a glider denotes a 1, the absence of a glider a 0.
We show that if both A and B have a 1 in the current location, then A and B will have a 1 in that location.
All other combinations will give a 0 for A and B.
Note that since B interacts with the glider stream later than A does, the B stream must lag behind the A stream.

Return to the and operation.
