    public abstract class EvolutionaryStrategy
+extends Module
    +
    This class specifies the characteristics of an evolutionary strategy. The evolutionary + strategy's job is to generate the next population of solutions. In JCGP this is done by modifying + the provided population object rather than creating a new one. +

    + A typical implementation of EvolutionaryStratey iterates through the chromosomes + in the population and selects the individual(s) to be promoted. It then uses + mutator.mutate() to generically mutate the promoted individual(s). Parameter-dependent + strategies can be implemented by accessing the parameters via the resources + argument. +

    + Parameters may be specified to control the implemented strategy. Any parameters + registered with registerParameters() should be displayed by the user interface, + if it is being used. See Module for more information. +

    + It is advisable to use Resources.reportln() and Resources.report() + to print any relevant information. Note that reportln() and report() are affected + by the report interval base parameter. Use Resources.println() and + Resources.print() to print information regardless of the current generation. + See Resources for more information.
