Core Wars is a simulation game. A number of programs are loaded into a
virtual machine and executed. The programs can to crash each other,
manipulate other programs, overwrite as much memory as they can, etc...

involves the number of memory cells the program has overwritten, the
number of other programs it has crashed and whether/when it crashed.
