Conway puzzle

So, you know how sometimes you like to play games or do puzzles? Well, the Conway puzzle is a special type of puzzle that is played on a grid. The grid is like a big square with lots of little squares inside of it.

In the puzzle, you start with some squares on the grid that are either colored in or left blank. Now, here comes the tricky part: you have to figure out which squares should be colored in or left blank in the next turn. To do this, you need to follow some rules.

The first rule is that if a square is colored in and has one or fewer neighbors that are also colored in, it will become blank in the next turn. If a square is blank but has exactly three neighbors that are colored in, it will become colored in in the next turn.

The second rule is that after each turn, all of the changes happen at the same time. So you can't change just one square and see what happens - you have to change them all at once.

The third rule is that this process goes on and on, with each turn changing the grid in some way. Eventually, the grid will either settle down and stop changing, or it will keep changing forever.

So, the goal of the Conway puzzle is to figure out which squares should be colored in or blank in each turn, based on these rules. It takes some patience and careful thinking, but it's a fun challenge that can keep you entertained for a long time!
