Re: Simple math questions about Conway's Game of Life

I do not think any CA can do natural log, just an approximation at best. Reason being that time in Cgol is discrete, and as you know, e cannot be represented as a fraction.

Why are male pronouns used for patterns (Grandfather problem, unique father problem) despite the fact that female pronouns are normally used for biological cells (Budding yeast forms daughter cell, etc)?

Re: Human-readable alternative to base64-encoded MAP rulestrings?

Hensel notation has the exact same issues and nobody complains. Your notation seems to add more letters on top of that. Thus it becomes harder to learn. That might be partially compensated, if the notation is supposed to be used mostly by people who already learned Hensel notation. Well, it is mean...

So for example, B3/S236i where S6i only works vertically would be B3/S236iu, Determination but photons only work vertically would be B2audbx3i/S12.
