The pictures don't make any sense to me. What are the pictures of? Are they plots? If they're plots, then what are the axes? What does black represetn, what does white represent?--ASL 00:02, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

I believe the Y axis is time (generations, iterations of the rule), proceeding downwards. Black/White are 0 and 1. The table at the top of the article explains how each particular pattern proceeds into a subsequent pattern. (Each cell's state in the next generation is dependent on its own state, and that of its two neighbors). —Hobart 19:55, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
this is correct, except you got white and black back to front. black is one, not white Mathmo 02:39, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
