Details

  • This message is generated when the first part of the second argument in CellularAutomaton does not have an expected form.
  • The second argument in CellularAutomaton is the initial condition specification. The first element in the initial condition specification is the state specification, which can include both the initial state and a spatial offset specification.
  • See the documentation for CellularAutomaton for information on valid forms for the initial condition and state specifications.
  • Off[message] switches off the message; On[message] switches it on. For example: Off[CellularAutomaton::stoff].

Examples

Basic Examples  (1)

The structure of the offset specification does not match the structure of the state specification:

Wolfram Language code: CellularAutomaton[30, {{{{1}, {1}}, {{1}, 0}}, {0}}, 3]

This shows a valid state and offset specification:

Wolfram Language code: CellularAutomaton[30, {{{{1}, {1}}, {{1}, {0}}}, {0}}, 3]
