    --------

    HODGE-C is a (`mostly ANSI') C language implemenatation of
    Gerhard & Schuster's hodge-podge machine. It implements a class
    of cellular automata, that resemble very closely autocatalytic
    chemical reactions, like for example, the Belousov-Zhabotinskii (BZ)
    reaction.

    For an introductory article on hodge-podge see:
    A.K.Dewdney's Computer Recreations column, in Scientific American,
    August 1988.
