%N Number of ON cells at generation n of 2-D cellular automaton in which a cell is ON iff either 1 or 2 of its eight neighbors were ON at previous generation, starting with a single ON cell.

%C This is the Rule 60 outer totalistic 8-neighbor 2-D CA.

%C The first few generations are easy to understand, but then there are complications (hence the keyword "look", which refers to the illustrations).
