Threaded Game of Life in Java


import java.util.concurrent.ArrayBlockingQueue;
import java.util.concurrent.BlockingQueue;

/*  
 Game of life
 D. Thiebaut
 Heavily adapted from code found in java section at this
 URL:  https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life#Java

 This code works in console mode, displaying successive generations
 of the game of life on the screen, and clearing the screen between
 each one.

 The initial pattern is defined in the array dish (as in petri dish).

 To compile and run:

 javac GameOfLife.java
 java GameOfLife
