You ask whether there is a nice description of something in any of 256 different objects. If you had asked a universal description for all cellular automata, then one could have answered "No, there is no nice description". If you had asked the same for a specific automaton (say, rule 90), then one might or might not have been able to provide you with a nice description. Instead, your question in its current form consists of 256 separate questions. | |
