+Cellular Automata

-Description
------------
-I want to try several different approaches to implementing Conway's Game of
-Life. It shall be recorded in this repo.
-
-Each of the implementations (living in sequentially numbered directories) shall
-have its own README file, documenting the approach taken.
+I started-out wanting to try Conway's Game of Life, then got hooked and decided
+to play with other automata rules as well.
Summary
-------
-* __ID:__ 001,
- __Language:__ Erlang,
- __Approach:__ Each cell is a gen_server process
-* __ID:__ 002,
- __Language:__ OCaml,
- __Approach:__ Traditional matrix
-* __ID:__ 003,
- __Language:__ Erlang,
- __Approach:__ Traditional matrix as nested [array()]
