PSOUP: Primordial Soup
areas/alife/systems/psoup/
Primordial Soup is an artificial life program similar in concept to
Thomas Ray's Tierra system. Organisms are computer software loops that
live in a shared memory space and self-reproduce. The organisms mutate
and evolve, behaving in accordance with the principles of Darwinian
evolution. Since the memory space is shared, multiple organisms can
execute the same program or program fragments, and can overwrite each
other in part or in whole.
