Problem 1
Write a threaded java program that computes the generations of the game of life. The program should get 3 different pieces of information from the command line:
- The number of threads it must generate
- The number of generations it must compute
- The name of the text file containing the first generation, i.e. the first "dish."
Format of the Text File
The original dish is stored in a text file using the following format:
" "
" # "
" # # ### "
" ## "
" "
" # "
" # # "
" ## "

" ## "
" "
" "
" "

" "
Each line of the dish array is defined by 2 double quotes. The first double-quote defines the beginning of a row of characters representing cells, spaces for dead cells, and #-signs for live ones.
