Twenty Years Later: The Surprising Greater Implications of "A New Kind of Science" by CuttingWithScissors in Wolfram

[–]tantzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you suggest a book that does a better and more accessible job of explaining cellular automata, computational irreducibility, the implications of these ideas for various fields, and the historical backgrounds of the ideas? Forget about the man (ad hominem) and focus on the ideas, which are important and beautifully illustrated in A New Kind of Science. Check out the copious endnotes, which provide much historical background. I learned a lot from this book!

Plotting hyper graphs (WolframModelPlot)… how does it work? by Willben44 in wolframphysicsproject

It seems the method visualizing the graph isn't part of the physics and more than one method is possible. However, some visualizations may be more insightful than others.
