population

fun <V, F> population(size: Int, buffer: Int = 0, name: String = DEFAULT_POPULATION_NAME, factory: PopulationFactory<V, F>): PanmicticPopulation<V, F>

Creates PanmicticPopulation.

Parameters

size

the current size of population

buffer

the amount of reserved space in a population. If the expected maximum value of the population size (MAX - to which growth is possible) is known, improve performance by:

buffer = MAX - size

name

name of population, default value = DEFAULT_POPULATION_NAME, used to identify different populations

factory

PopulationFactory for this population. Creates new Chromosome

fun <V, F> population(population: Array<Chromosome<V, F>>, buffer: Int = 0, name: String = DEFAULT_POPULATION_NAME, factory: PopulationFactory<V, F>): PanmicticPopulation<V, F>

Creates PanmicticPopulation.

Parameters

population

initial or existing population. Size of population will be equal to Array.size - buffer. (Default buffer is 0)

buffer

the amount of reserved space in a population.

name

name of population, default value = DEFAULT_POPULATION_NAME, used to identify different populations

factory

PopulationFactory for this population. Creates new Chromosome
