HODGE-C: -------- HODGE-C is a (`mostly ANSI') C language implemenatation of Gerhard & Schuster's hodge-podge machine. It implements a class of cellular automata, that resemble very closely autocatalytic chemical reactions, like for example, the Belousov-Zhabotinskii (BZ) reaction. For an introductory article on hodge-podge see: A.K.Dewdney's Computer Recreations column, in Scientific American, August 1988.
