Generation<P extends Phenotype<G, R>, G, R extends FitnessResult> class

A collection of Phenotypes that breed to create another, better Generation.

The type arguments of this class are:

• P for a Phenotype subtype
• G for a gene type (can be double, bool, etc.)
• R for a FitnessResult subtype

In practice, creating a generation can look like this:

var firstGeneration = Generation<MyPhenotype, bool, SingleObjectiveResult>()
    ..members.addAll(List.generate(10, (_) => MyPhenotype.random()));

Methods

computeSummary() → void

Computes cumulativeFitness and bestFitness, assuming all members of the population are scored.

Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
