This week we will be looking at the MATLAB class system. This video does not cover the "why" of doing OOP (Object Oriented Programming) in MATLAB. It just covers a very simple example of doing OOP. The ten minute video shows an implementation of Conway's Game of Life in MATLAB with classes. Though it is not covered in the video, you can implement other lifelike Cellular Automation algorithms by altering the parameters for survival and birth.
