yes you are right the question was ambiguous. WHat I was really looking for is if there is a way to physically derive PI out of some basic cellular automata operations. that does not necessarily have to involve circles etc. much less so abo

makes me wonder if its possible to get natural numbers like pi/e using a geometric structure in GoL. it would be interesting to derive them from an emerging order based on fixed set of automata rules. If possible it might lead credence

apologies for offtopic rant, but why cant they (palmsource/??) just open source BeOS codebase? what possible gain they can have by holding onto 20yo codebase just out of licensing spite. honestly for all the do-gooder talk in VC commun
