This dynamic function takes a boolean matrix as argument and return a boolean matrix with the new generation. It is taken from [http://www.dyalog.dk/dfnsdws/n_life.htm Dyalog`s] Website which at the time being (2007-02-09) does not support Unicode. However, you will see APL characters with Internet Explorer but not with any other browser.

As you might know, the answer to the ultimate question is '''42''', according to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_adams Douglas Adams`s] famous book "[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker's_Guide_to_the_Galaxy Hitchhiker`s Guide to the Galaxy"]. We do not need a supercomputer and millions of years to proof that. Whatever you specify as right argument to this function:

{{{
MeaningOfLife←{+.×/⍎⊖⍕⊃¨⊂|⌊-*+○⌈∨.∧/>\</×÷!⌽⍉⍉⌹~⍴⍋⍒,⍟?⍳''≡1↑0⍴∊⍵}
}}}

...will produce a reasonable answer, regardless which type/lenght/depth/rank it is.
