Langton's Ant

By M.Weltz Free

Developer's Description

From the developer: ""This is a mathematical program that creates nice graphics. It is based on an amazingly simple algorithm: A virtual 'ant' is walking across a two-dimensional array of bits. If the bit the ant steps on is 0 (color 2) the ant turns left. If the bit is 1 (color 1) the ant turns right. The bit the ant has just left will be inverted. These simple rules lead to a mostly chaotic pattern is but sometimes the ant creates regular 'highways'.""
