CA (Cellular Automata)

Cellular Automata (CA) are models made up of a grid of simple cells, each with a state (like on/off or different colors). The state of each cell updates regularly based on specific rules that consider its neighboring cells. These rules lead to complex patterns and behaviors emerging over time, despite the simplicity of individual cells. CAs are used to simulate systems such as natural phenomena, traffic flow, and computational processes, illustrating how simple rules at the local level can produce intricate global behavior.
