( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Hhhmm, I've written my on vesion, with somewhat different operators (genes) to help with the speed of convergence. Actually, I changed the goal too, it now looks for an individual number, repedatively; it eventually prints ot JUST ANOTHER PERL HACKER. But I'm having a problem, quite often the populaion i overrun with exactly the same genes. I really need hlp figuring out how this is happening. The big differences are the choose and breed routines, which are called select and mate in this code. The mate routine selects some of the most fit oganisms, breeds them, and replaces some of the least fit organisms with the offspring. Here's the code: 
#!/usr/bin/perl
package GenePool;

        '$X-=1;', '$y-=1;',
        '$X+=$y;', '$y+=$x;',
        '$x-=$y;', '$y-=$x;',
        ';' ];

  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
