# Conway's Game Of Life
### Because of course we need another implementation
I've been told you're not a real programmer unless you've written a Conway Game
of Life program. So I figured I'd better get it out of the way sooner or
later, and so here we are.
Written in C because Python would probably have been too easy. Was considering
doing it in C++ so I could take advantage of classes.
Going to try and figure out how to do the "modify in-place" algorithm instead
of the easy way using 2 arrays that you ping-pong between. Still unclear how
you can modify it in-place without destroying information you need when
processing cells further along... have to give it a good think. I mean, I
assume there's a way to do it because this programming website set it as
a challenge.
