Question: In MATLAB, implement the cellular automaton simulation where configurations 0 0 1 , 0 1 1 , 1 0 0 and 1 1 0 give

In MATLAB, implement the cellular automaton simulation where configurations 001,011,100 and 110 give rise to a live cell at the next step. Use 521 cells and take 255 steps. Set the initial states to be zero, except for a single 1 in the middle (i.e. at column 260). Use either "dead cell" or "wrap around" boundary conditions. Provide the final state of the simulation as your answer. It will be a single row with 521 columns. Just copy and paste this single row as your answer A1_final. If you've called your simulation array A in MATLAB, then the command disp(num2str(A(end,:))) will give you the last row in ready-to-paste form (but remember the square brackets when you enter it).
By the way, be sure to visualise the full array in MATLAB -- it's a picture of a very famous fractal!
