I don't think you have the correct understanding of how this case works. I have created a potential python solution at http://www.ideone.com/aUGJT that outputs to standard error the state after every generation. It's fairly slow for the small data set and very very very slow for the large data set, but hopefully it explains the mechanic at play.
