Q: How to make a UCC rule?
A: Every UCC rule is the black/white reversal of an unique CCU rule where the living conditions are modified to exchange roles of alive cells and dead cells. This provides a straightforward way of generating UCC rules, as the underlying structure of a CCU rule is significantly simpler than the underlying structure of the corresponding UCC rule.
