[Newark] Life (Conway's Game of)

... the only thing that I can't quite get my head around regarding life is
what order to calculate the cells in. I mean; if you work left to right, top
to bottom you'll get a different outcome than if you - say, do the opposite.

Any insight? A brief Google for this a while back - possibly the day after
it was mentioned in a, possibly our previous, LUG meet - didn't get me any
further with this query.

Oh.. For those who don't know what on Earth I'm jabbering on about, see

Kind Regards
