Weisstein's _Elementary Cellular Automaton_ notebook (ElementaryCellularAutomaton.nb), the only thing you need is the following command before playing around with the functions: Needs["MathWorld`CellularAutomata`"] The first few cell of Eric W. Weisstein's _Elementary Cellular Automaton_ notebook read: "This notebook downloaded from http://mathworld.wolfram.com/notebooks/CellularAutomata/ElementaryCellularAutomaton.nb. For more information, see Eric's MathWorld entry http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ElementaryCellularAutomaton.html. For a list of Eric's math packages that may be needed to evaluate this notebook, see http://mathworld.wolfram.com/packages/. An archive of these packages may be downloaded from http://mathworld.wolfram.com/packages/MathWorldPackages.zip, as well as from the Mathematica Information Center's MathSource item 4775. A list of Eric's utility packages that may be needed to evaluate this notebook may be downloaded from MathSource item 5087." Hope this helps, /J.M.
