Title: The most amazing ant! Langdon's one Post by: DarkBeam on May 21, 2016, 05:22:28 PM I discovered this nice automata yesterday!
:dink: Ants can do Sierpinski's gaskets, fill squares... Great vid by an italian guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1X-gtr4pEBU There are also strange "3d" extensions of this cool automata concept. There is also a great Android app that plots those fun automatas I suggest you to download it (just search Langdon and you find it). Title: Re: The most amazing ant!
