Method Detail

setNumStates

public java.lang.Object setNumStates(int n)

Record the number of states the CA understands.

initializeLattice

public java.lang.Object initializeLattice()

Use this to set up your CA to a default initial state. Unimplemented in Ca2d; subclass this to set up initial state of lattice.
