Which wiki? SDL2, PySDL2 or Pygame?
Just playing, but here are (probably suboptimal, even ignoring the
naive algorithm) Pygame and PySDL2 examples of Conway's life. They
require a recent numpy. I'd be interested to hear about better
approaches. I'd like to get my head around using OpenGL "shader"
threads to do it even more quickly in parallel, but that looks
annoyingly fiddly. Maybe writing versions using the multiprocessing
module would be a first step, I don't think I'd have any trouble with
that.
