What is a 1D computer? A computer made with a single line of atoms?
- jolmg 7y agoLike another post mentioned, this would be an example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_110 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_110 Atoms work on 3 dimensions, I believe, and 1D doesn't need to imply our physical 3D existence minus 2 dimensions. It can be a virtual 1D realm that runs on our own defined "physics". The rules that define the "physics" in Rule 110 are: |-----------------+---------------------------| | current pattern | new state for center cell | |-----------------+---------------------------| | 111 | 0 | | 110 | 1 | | 101 | 1 | | 100 | 0 | | 011 | 1 | | 010 | 1 | | 001 | 1 | | 000 | 0 | |-----------------+---------------------------|
