*If the cell is black it turns left
This rather simple ruleset leads some movement appearing like random (or maybe like some kind of edge detecion being run on random images) and after about 10000 a cyle appears that makes the ant move in a diagonal movements with a corridor about 10 pixels wide, which essentially means that the ant will move out of the screen. The program terminates when the ant moves off screen.▼
*If it is white it turns right

For this task, start the ant near the center of a 100 by 100 field of cells (coordinates 50, 50 if you use
