In mid-2008, someone was working on a cellular automata package [1]
for Sage. I haven't seen any updates on that project for over two
years now. You might want to have a look through the code of that
package before writing anything from scratch.

That would be nice to have.

I don't know if a cellular automata package could be implemented for
Sage. Right now one of my main focus is on fundamental data structures
for the graph theory module of Sage, and maintaining and improving the
graph theory module in general. If you want to try your hands at
implementing a cellular automata package, by all means do so.

Any contributions to the Sage project is welcome, no matter how trivial.
