In cellular automata, a replicator is a pattern that produces copies of itself. In the one-dimensional Rule 90 cellular automaton, every pattern is a replicator. The same is true in the

life-like cellular automaton Life-Like was a manufacturer of model trains and accessories. In 1960, the company purchased the assets of the defunct Varney Scale Models and began manufacturing model trains and accessories under the name Life-Like in 1970. In 2005 the parent co ...

rule Replicator (B1357/S1357)... Highlife (B36/S23) rule has a simple replicator. On November 23, 2013, Dave Greene built the first replicator in Conway's Game of Life (B3/S23).
