Artificial life (commonly Alife or alife) is a field of study and an associated art form which examine systems related to life, its processes, and its evolution through simulations using computer models, robotics, and biochemistry.[1] There are three main kinds of alife, named for their approaches: soft, from software; hard, from hardware; and wet, from biochemistry.[2] Artificial life imitates traditional biology by trying to recreate biological phenomena.[3] The term "artificial life" is often used to specifically refer to soft alife.citation needed
