Rule 62 is one of the elementary cellular automaton rules introduced by Stephen Wolfram in 1983 (Wolfram 1983, 2002). It
specifies the next color in a cell, depending on its color and its immediate neighbors.
Its rule outcomes are encoded in the binary representation
. This rule is illustrated
above together with the evolution of a single black cell it produces after 15 steps
(Wolfram 2002, p. 55).
The mirror image is rule 118, complement is rule 131, and mirrored complement is rule 145.
Starting with a single black cell, successive generations 
, 1, ... are given by interpreting the numbers 1, 7, 25,
111, 433, 1751, 7033, 28047, ... in binary, namely 1, 111, 11001, 1101111, 110110001,
....
