Hello all, Im trying to learn python and programming in my free time, and I'm trying to do a little personal project to trying and gain some skills. Im trying to do version of John conways game of life. I have a working version of the game. Written for 3.2.2 on a mac to be accessed through terminal. I'm trying to give it a number of options. it dimensions, the max number of turns, initial set up, and boundary conditions. The dimensions and turns were pretty easy to include. The boundary conditions more difficult, and now I'm getting stuck on the initial set up options. I can set it up randomly but Im having problems implementing a checker board pattern.
'''displays: the text of the game of life for a set number of X x Y for a
set of R turns.

Get X,Y,T, Initial value
Create a data space X x Y
Assign initial value
print initial value and the text' initial value'
do while turns<T:
check data space
create new data space according to rules and old data space.
replace dataspace
print data space.
print end. '''
