[][src]Crate ca_formats

Parsing pattern files for Conway's Game of Life.

The parsers read a string and return an iterator of coordinates of living cells.

Parsing is lazy. If there is something wrong in the file, it will not be detected immediately.

Rules with more than 2 states are not supported.

Supported formats

Example

use ca_formats::rle::RLE;

const GLIDER: &str = r"#N Glider
#O Richard K. Guy
#C The smallest, most common, and first discovered spaceship. Diagonal, has period 4 and speed c/4.
#C www.conwaylife.com/wiki/index.php?title=Glider
x = 3, y = 3, rule = B3/S23
bob$2bo$3o!";
let mut glider = RLE::new(GLIDER).collect::<Result<Vec<_>, _>>().unwrap();
glider.sort();
assert_eq!(glider, vec![(0, 1), (1, 2), (2, 0), (2, 1), (2, 2)]);
