Question 14

At time $1$, $n$ unit squares of an infinite sheet of paper ruled in squares are painted black, the rest remain white. At time $k + 1$, the color of each square is changed to the color held at time $k$ by a majority of the following three squares: the square itself, its northern neighbour and its eastern neighbour. Prove that all the squares are white at time $n + 1$.
