Multistate rule

A multistate rule is, broadly speaking, any cellular automaton in which cells exist in more than two states, as opposed to a binary rule.

Types of multistate rules

Various kinds of multistate rules have been proposed or investigated, among them:

• BSFKL and BSFK rules.
• Colourised Life, including Immigration, Quadlife and Niemiec's Life.
• Generations rules.
• Larger than Life Generations rules.
• Polystate Life rules.
• Reverse Generations ("snoitareneG") rules
