This version defines the fixed cells to the left and right as dead; of course other versions are possible. This function generates one generation from a previous one, passed as a 0-1 vector. |

You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Assume an array of cells with an initial distribution of live and dead cells, and imaginary cells off the end of the array having fixed values.
Cells in the next generation of the array are calculated based on the value of the cell and its left and right nearest neighbours in the current generation. If, in the following table, a live cell is represented by 1 and a dead cell by 0 then to generate the value of the cell at a particular index in the array of cellular values you use the following table:
000 -> 0 # 001 -> 0 # 010 -> 0 # Dies without enough neighbours 011 -> 1 # Needs one neighbour to survive 100 -> 0 # 101 -> 1 # Two neighbours giving birth 110 -> 1 # Needs one neighbour to survive 111 -> 0 # Starved to death.

end </lang>
An alternative approach is to represent the automaton as a string. The following solution takes advantage of the implicit type coercions between string and numeric values in Icon and Unicon. It also surrounds the automaton with a border of 'dead' (always 0) cells to eliminate the need to special case the first and last cells in the automaton. Although the main procedure displays up to the first 10 generations, the evolve procedure fails if a new generation is unchanged from the previous, stopping the generation cycle early.
<lang unicon>procedure main(A)
A := if *A = 0 then ["01110110101010100100"] CA := show("0"||A[1]||"0") # add always dead border cells every CA := show(|evolve(CA)\10) # limit to max of 10 generations
end
procedure show(ca)
write(ca[2:-1]) # omit border cells return ca
end
procedure evolve(CA)
newCA := repl("0",*CA) every newCA[i := 2 to (*CA-1)] := (CA[i-1]+CA[i]+CA[i+1] = 2, "1") return CA ~== newCA # fail if no change
end</lang>

JavaScript
The example below expects an array of 1s or 0s, as in the example. It also adds dead cells to both ends, which aren't included in the returned next generation.
state[i-1] refers to the new cell in question, (old[i] == 1) checks if the old cell was alive. <lang javascript>function caStep(old) {
var old = [0].concat(old, [0]); // Surround with dead cells. var state = []; // The new state. for (var i=1; i<old.length-1; i++) { switch (old[i-1] + old[i+1]) { case 0: state[i-1] = 0; break; case 1: state[i-1] = (old[i] == 1) ? 1 : 0; break; case 2: state[i-1] = (old[i] == 1) ? 0 : 1; break; } } return state;
}</lang>
Example usage: <lang javascript>alert(caStep([0,1,1,1,0,1,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,0,0]));</lang> shows an alert with "0,1,0,1,1,1,1,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0".

PARI/GP
This version defines the fixed cells to the left and right as dead; of course other versions are possible. This function generates one generation from a previous one, passed as a 0-1 vector. <lang parigp>step(v)=my(u=vector(#v),k);u[1]=v[1]&v[2];u[#u]=v[#v]&v[#v-1];for(i=2,#v-1,k=v[i-1]+v[i+1];u[i]=if(v[i],k==1,k==2));u;</lang>
Perl
Use regexp to extract and substitute cells while the string changes
Convert cells to zeros and ones to set complement state <lang perl> $_="_###_##_#_#_#_#__#__\n"; y/01/_#/,print,y/_#/01/,s/(?<=(.))(.)(?=(.))/$1==$3?$1==0?0:1-$2:$2/eg while ($x ne $_ and $x=$_); </lang>

Perl 6
Short though it is, this solution even detects stability. Z+ is a zip metaop with addition, and X== is a cross metaop with equality. (Crossing with a scalar always producing a list of the same length.) We have taken the slight liberty of defining a wraparound universe, but it doesn't matter for this example. <lang perl6>my @c = <_ #>; my @array = '_###_##_#_#_#_#__#__'.comb.map: { $_ eq '#' };
repeat until @array eqv my @prev {
say @c[@prev = @array]; @array = ((@array Z+ @array.rotate(1)) Z+ @array.rotate(-1)) X== 2;
}</lang>

Three functions are defined. Rule takes a neighborhood of three cells to the succeeding value of the middle one, step takes a list of cells to its successor by applying the rule across a sliding window, and evolve takes an initial list of cells to a list of those evolving from it according to the rule. The cells are maintained as a list of booleans (0 and &) but are converted to characters for presentation in the example code. <lang Ursala>#import std
