C++ Game of Life Header File

This document defines a Life class that represents John Conway's Game of Life simulation. The Life class contains methods to count each cell's neighbors, generate the next generation, print the map, run a random or file-based simulation, and check for stability or an empty map. Private members track the grid dimensions and generation count, as well as flags and arrays to manage the current and next maps.
