Description:

This programs visualizes a very simple one-dimensional cellular automaton, which operates on booleans and takes only three predecessors into account for the generation of a new cell.

This CA is used in Stephen Wolframs "A new kind of science" as an introduction.
Four kinds of complexity can be seen here:

Repetition
Nesting
Randomness
Localized structures
