Implementation of Conway's Game of Life in Java

HOW TO USE GAME OF LIFE WITH A .txt FILE:

The first line of the .txt file is dedicated to the row and column length. The first int will be the number of rows, while the second will be the number of columns. To make your game, first fill your .txt file with periods (".") in a grid that matches the rows and columns of the .txt file name. Then, fill any of the tiles that you wish to be 'alive' with "█".

See the example below for what the contents of the .txt file should look like. A valid name for a .txt file containing that pattern would be myGrid4x5.txt
