Elementary Cellular Automaton

This is a one dimensional elementary cellular automaton generator. If you have no idea what that means, go here or just play around with the values and press the start button. Currently there are no limits set on how many states (rows) it will generate, so don't leave it running for too long, or it will freeze the tab. If you do not provide an initial state, it will start from a randomly generated state. There is no upper limit to the number of cells, but if you go too high it will freeze the tab (depending on your computer). The colors take hexadecimal color codes (#ffff00) and names as well (yellow) and will only affect new states. From a phone you will need to scroll down to see the action. Enjoy.
