I'm sure many would complain about the obfuscated nature of the code. I however find it strangly beautiful. It has the appearance of a strand of DNA and then one marvels at all of the complexity hidden in these cryptic lines.

To see it:

`git clone https://github.com/duckythescientist/obfuscatedLife.git

cd obfuscatedLife

gcc life.c

./a.out`

Here is a screenshot[1] for anyone who didn't run the code. However a screenshot hardly does the dynamic nature of it justice.

Well, this is a submission to the IOCCC, so I don't think anyone will complain about the code's obfuscated nature :)
