Game of Life Benchmark Dataset

This dataset includes grids of various sizes and percentages of living cells to benchmark Conway's Game of Life implementations. An example implementation in Python is available at https://github.com/girgink/game-of-life. Grid files can be converted into Run Length Encoded (RLE) format by using the convert_to_rle.py tool available on the code repository. Grid file format Grids are provided as ASCII text files. The first line includes] the width and height of the grid as unsigned integer values separated by a space. The other lines indicate the initial locations of the living cells: Each line has two unsigned integer values separated by space indicating vertical and horizontal coordinates of the living cells, respectively. The top left cell has the coordinates of (0, 0) Valid vertical coordinate values range between 0 - (height-1), increasing from top to bottom. Valid horizontal coordinate values range between 0 - (width-1), increasing from left to right.
