1D Cellular Automaton Generator

[Sas2k]

Description

Hello, the feature I would like to propose is a cellular automaton generator. like if someone types; .simulate <rule-number> <position: left|center|right|random> <initial-condition random|impulse>(startes with 1 cell)

Rule-Number: A rule consists of deciding, for each pattern, whether the cell will be a 1 or a 0 in the next generation. There are then 28 = 256 possible rules. postion: the place where the starting cells are placed initial-conditon: random - randomly place cells | impulse - starts with only 1 cell

and it would send a picture of the output.

Reasoning

For fun! and education purpose of course(https://www.techtarget.com/searchenterprisedesktop/definition/cellular-automaton)

Proposed Implementation

the code for the simulation is already implemented in one of my own bots and it's fully functional Link-To-Gitub-Repo-of-the-existing-code

Would you like to implement this yourself?

Sorry, I'm not really sure what this is or what to do with that

Have you ever heard of cellular automaton

defenition:

A cellular automaton (CA) is a collection of cells arranged in a grid of specified shape, such that each cell changes state as a function of time, according to a defined set of rules driven by the states of neighboring cells.

I think this is a fun standalone project to implement if you're interested in the algorithm, but honestly I don't think it fits the bot. It's not informational or interactive, and I don't see people using it.

ok, thanks for reviewing it @mbaruh
