ECS v2 – Electric Boogaloo

I implemented the ECS-"Pattern" in python before, but at that variant is very optionated when it comes to all things systems, i.e. the "S" in "ECS". This time around I kept it simple and punted all the "filtering" out the user of the module. In turn this version is terser, for better or for worse.

Another sidenote, that I find important enough to actually mention, is that this implementation is actually more or less a cross between my prior version and esper. The later of which influenced the whole lru caching this time around...

Cellular Automata

Whilst being very bored recently I started playing around with simulating cellular automata once again. But to challenge myself a bit more than usual I set three specific limitations that made this a bit harder than I was used to:

1. The simulation functions should be able to handle n-dimensional rules and states.
2. The rules should be given as integers.
3. The state should be represented as an integer, making use of the fact that the whole state consists of a n-dimensional array of booleans that can be flattened.
