Task
Wireworld
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Wireworld is a cellular automaton with some similarities to Conway's Game of Life. It is capable of doing sophisticated computations with appropriate programs (it is actually Turing complete), and is much simpler to program for.

A wireworld arena consists of a cartesian grid of cells, each of which can be in one of four states. All cell transitions happen simultaneously. The cell transition rules are this:

Input State Output State Condition
empty empty
electron head  electron tail 
electron tail  conductor
conductor electron head  if 1 or 2 cells in the neighborhood of the cell are in the state “electron head
conductor conductor otherwise

To implement this task, create a program that reads a wireworld program from a file and displays an animation of the processing. Here is a sample description file (using "H" for an electron head, "t" for a tail, "." for a conductor and a space for empty) you may wish to test with, which demonstrates two cycle-3 generators and an inhibit gate:

tH.........
.   .
   ...
.   .
Ht.. ......

While text-only implementations of this task are possible, mapping cells to pixels is advisable if you wish to be able to display large designs. The logic is not significantly more complex.

end Test_Wireworld;</lang> The solution assumes that the border of the board is empty. When transition is performed these cells are not changed. Automation transition is an in-place operation that allocates memory for to keep one row of the board size.

jq

In this implementation, a "world" is simply a string as illustrated by world11 and world9 below. For speed, the simulation uses the exploded string (an array). "Animation" is based on the ANSI escape sequence for "clear screen".

To adjust the refresh rate, adjust the input to "spin".<lang jq>def world11: "+-----------+\n" + "|tH.........|\n" + "|. . |\n" + "| ... |\n" + "|. . |\n" + "|Ht.. ......|\n" + "+-----------+\n" ;

def world9: " \n" + " tH \n" + " . .... \n" + " .. \n" + " \n" ;

  1. "clear screen":

def cls: "\u001b[2J";

def lines:split("\n")|length;

def cols: split("\n")[0]|length + 1; # allow for the newline

  1. Is there an "H" at [x,y] relative to position i, assuming the width is w?
  2. Input is an array; 72 is "H"

def isH(x; y; i; w): if .[i+ w*y + x] == 72 then 1 else 0 end;

   (0; . + ($i|cos)*($i|cos) + ($i|sin)*($i|sin) )

  1. Animate n steps;
