Von Neumann Self-Replicating Automata Simulator - CORRECTED VERSION
====================================================================

This version implements ACTUAL transition rules for the automata,
not simplified approximations.

Implementations:
1. Langton's Self-Replicating Loop (actual rule table)
2. Wire World (correct implementation)
3. Game of Life variant
4. Simple demo replicator

Author: Corrected implementation based on proper CA rules
