Hi,
I'm trying to optimize my game of life in Python but it takes 2 to 4 sec for one life cycle (without display) when it takes 6 ms with the version in C. The difference is so big between the 2 langages and I am sure something is wrong in my python version. Maybe the multiple accesses to a mumpy matrice is too time cosuming so I should use something else with faster read access ?
Do you have an idea to optimize part of my code ?
For your information, it first reads a json file that read a grill of about 800/800 to initialize the first state of the environment.
Thanks for your help !
