Explore the Wireworld Turing-complete cellular automaton
Contributed by: Daniel Sanchez
Wireworld is a Turing-complete cellular automaton first proposed by Brian Silverman in 1987 suited for simulating logic gates and other real-world computer elements.

Evolve a Wireworld state for 2 steps:
| In[1]:= | ![]() |
| Out[1]= | ![]() |
Plot a Wireworld state:
| In[2]:= | ![]() |
| Out[2]= | ![]() |
Test whether a matrix is a valid Wireworld state:
| In[3]:= | ![]() |
| Out[3]= |
Open a window and draw/edit a Wireworld state:


Animate the evolution of an OR gate fed by two electron sources:
| In[4]:= | ![]() |
| Out[4]= | ![]() |
Animate the behaviour of an OR gate, an XOR gate and an inverter:
| In[5]:= | ![]() |
| Out[5]= | ![]() |
