In conjunction with modularized FF, EA and mutation, this makes for a very +flexible and versatile system. The Population class itself is immutable, since the system relies heavily on it. +Finally, it is Iterable to for access to the chromosomes within. + + + \ No newline at end of file -- cgit v1.2.3
