Langton’s Ant – Order out of Chaos

This is another fascinating branch of mathematics - which uses computing to illustrate complexity (and order) in nature.  Langton's Ant shows how very simple initial rules (ie a deterministic system) can have very unexpected consequences.  Langton's Ant follows two simple rules: 1) At a white square, turn 90° right, flip the color of the square,...
