|
||||||
|
## Notes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Java version of Game of Life tries to mimics the behaviour of the BASIC version.
|
||||||
|
However, the Java code does not have much in common with the original.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Differences in behaviour:**
|
||||||
|
* Input supports the ```.``` character, but it's optional.
|
||||||
|
* Evaluation of ```DONE``` input string is case insensitive.
