13.17.2 Equivalent rule by the negative transformation.

Enter ``n'' to transform the rule into its ``negative'' equivalent rule (by swapping the outputs of complimentary neighbourhood pairs in the rule table, then transforming the resultant rule table into its compliment). A negative rule and the start rule have equivalent dynamics, but with all state configurations in the space-time pattern complimented.
