%N A126803 Integers which die when submitted to the rules of the Game of Life. Design
of the digits is shown below.
%C A126803 Here's the font that's used; a single empty column is used between adjacent
digits. The same digit design was selected 39 years ago by Jonathan
Vos Post.

%C A126803 The sequence is infinite; e.g. any number whose decimal expansion begins
and ends with 14 and contains only the digits 1, 4 and 8 dies in
9 generations. It has density zero, because any number containing
the digit string 14405930 emits a lightweight spaceship which can't
be stopped by whatever the rest of the number produces.
