Writing the test for the population copy constructor will require the production of a method which compares two chromosomes.
-It might be useful to incorporate this into the program as it is an interesting utility function.
+
+Therefore, two new methods will be written for Chromosome: compareTo and compareActiveTo. Compare returns true if the two chromosomes
+are exclusively equivalent, and compareActive returns true if the active nodes within the two chromosomes are exclusively equivalent.
+
+Compare methods done, including their "dependency": copyOf method in MutableElement. This method is akin to equals(), with the exception that
+it returns false when the compared objects are pointers to a common instance.
+
+Minor update: Node now passes only the necessary number of arguments into its function; this allows the node to compute its active
+connections as it knows which connections the function will use (based on arity).
