Comments

An Elementary Triangular Automaton (ETA) is a cellular automaton in the triangular grid where cells hold binary states and rules are local to the first neighborhood. There are 256 possible ETA rules.

Rule 182 (10110110 in binary):

-----------------------------------------------

|state of the cell |1|1|1|1|0|0|0|0|

|sum of the neighbors' states |3|2|1|0|3|2|1|0|

|cell's next state |1|0|1|1|0|1|1|0|

-----------------------------------------------
