Golly, Lucidlife and The game of life in Fedora 10
මේක නම් හරිම අපූරුයි. මූලික සංකල්පයත් ලස්සනයි.
Excellent….. I’m a chemical engineering undergraduate , and i deal with maths as well as bio-chemical engineering (involves bio-cells produce products like ethanol, marmite, penicilin, vitamin c …) and we need to know about how cells grow
I’ve independently packaged Golly for Fedora, as I wasn’t aware of this earlier effort, and I’ve submitted the package for review. If all goes well, it will be in the main Fedora repository. Lucidlife is already there.
It’s nice to hear Golly will be in official repos. Thanks for contributing to the community 🙂
