Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	describe(EvolutionState state, Individual ind, int subpopulation, int threadnum, int log) "Reevaluates" an individual, for the purpose of printing out interesting facts about the individual in the context of the Problem, and logs the results.
void	evaluate(EvolutionState state, Individual ind, int subpopulation, int threadnum) Evaluates the individual in ind, if necessary (perhaps not evaluating them if their evaluated flags are true), and sets their fitness appropriately.

Method Detail

evaluate

void evaluate(EvolutionState state,
            Individual ind,
            int subpopulation,
            int threadnum)

Evaluates the individual in ind, if necessary (perhaps not evaluating them if their evaluated flags are true), and sets their fitness appropriately.

describe

void describe(EvolutionState state,
            Individual ind,
            int subpopulation,
            int threadnum,
            int log)

"Reevaluates" an individual, for the purpose of printing out interesting facts about the individual in the context of the Problem, and logs the results. This might be called to print out facts about the best individual in the population, for example.
