Pay attention in class?
They wouldn't set you an assignment without first telling you everything you need to know to do it.
(If this weren't an assignment, you'd be using a sensible language like C# or Python).

It's not like I sleep during classes, I realize I have to use arrays and custom functions I just don't know how should I use that. Our teacher just said that if we don't know what game of life is we should read about it on the internet. That's all he said.

So have you done that yet?

Yes I did, I know the rules, saw some examples. The problem is I don't know how to code it.

How can you not know how to code it?
If you know what's supposed to be happening, and can write out what's supposed to be happening, and you learned C in class, then you know how to code it.
Don't worry about premature optimisation, just implement the algorithm as described.
Go code it, and come back if you have a specific problem.
