Project Information
About this project:
This is the BigMazurkaLife project ("bigmazurkalife")
Authored by Mark Bizuga
This project is hosted by SourceForge.net. The project team describes it as:
A silly thing I've wanted to do for a long time.
Configure Pop-Up uses several different Parameter Entry methods (ScrollBars, Checkboxes, Radio Buttons, etc.).
This Screensaver is based on John Conway's "Game of Life".
To learn more about John Conway's "Game of Life",
search on Wikipedia for "Conway's Game of Life".
For this to be a proper screensaver, it needed to keep things interesting. So,
it detects when the world population count becomes stable (a world void of life
or only comprising "Oscillators", "Still Lifes", and/or "Spaceships") using a
running average of the population count. Once stability is detected, it throws
in a group of four "Gliders" as seeds to get things going again.
- Built using MINGW exclusively. http://www.mingw.org/
- Fairly well commented .rc file for the Configuration Widgets.
- Works with Windows XP, V7, and V8
