hey guys,
i programmed the game of life for fun tonight,
read up what it is here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life

Like it says draw with your left mousebutton, delete everything with your right mousebutton and hit the spacebar to start the simulation!
It's pretty fun to play around with it
edit/And don't forget that you can change the FIELD-Constant which defines the edge-length of the square, on my PC even something like 300 runs fairly smooth
