User:Haycat2009/one-letter finds

This is the full list of all one-letter finds, from Afind to Zfind.

Letter	Multithreading	Speed	Direction	Rulespace	Remarks
A	No	quite slow	No idea	OTCA	Very prone to finding still lives: sfind, which is based on this also does that.
B	Yes	Very fast	Alternates between width and length-first per row	OTCA	Fast, but usually ends up finding frothing puffers (use ixpx2)
C	No	quite slow	No idea	HROT/multistate	Uses little RAM but slow
D	Yes	Fast	Random	HRI	Based on ixpx2, LLSSS and LLS. Uses tons of RAM but fast and effective
E	No	Above average	No idea	INT	Optimisation of Cfind for speed.
F	Yes	Fast	Breadth-first	HRI	Fast, does not care about period and almost guaranteed success, but uses tons of RAM.
G	No	Average	Depth-first	OTCA	Most popular, but I prefer the flamboyant programs.
H	Yes	Surprisingly Fast	Depth-first	HRI	The higher the period the faster it runs. Uses RAM proportional to the sixth power of the period though.
I	Yes	Very Fast	Alternating	INT	Fast, uses little RAM, but prone to finding oscillators
J	Yes	Astronomically fast	Alternating	HRI	Optimised for quantum computers, takes advantage of qubits and parallel universes.
K	Yes	Considerably slow	Breadth-first	INT	Can be made to use very little RAM as it selects the most hopeful partial and builds from there. Based on nfind.
L	Yes	Slow	Random	INT	Combination of LLS and ifind. Slow but 100% effective.
M	No	Average	Random	OTCA	produces odd-looking spaceships.
N	Yes	Medium	Length-first	INT	Has a partial rating system, based on qfind
O	No	Fast	?	INT	Meant to find oscillators.
P	Yes	Fast	Alternating	HRI	Also meant to find oscillators, but generally faster
Q	Yes	Fast	Random	OTCA	Basically Gfind but faster. Nothing unique
R	Yes	Average	Lenth-first	HRI	A wider version of qfind. Nothing interesting
S	Yes	Fast	Random	HRI	Fast and uses little RAM but finds still lives frequently. Based on afind
T	Yes	Astronomically Fast	Random	HRI	A version of jfind meant for biological computers.
U	Yes	Slow	Back and forth	HRI	Based on kfind and jfind but self-checks.
V	Yes	Fast	Random	INT	A variant of ixpx2 that can create spaceships from scratch. Tends to form V-shaped spaceships, hence its name.
W	Yes	Very Fast	Random	INT	Meant to find puffers, tends to find very dirty ones. Fast, uses little RAM.
X	Yes	Slow	Random	ANCA	Made for directional CA. Not fast though.
Y	Yes	Average	Random	HRI	Does not care about period but uses tons of RAM.
Z	Yes	Fast	Breadth-first	HRI	Breadth-first Gfind.
