Or, now with 100% more Genetic Algorithm!
I’ve been programming a lot recently (instead of blogging about programming!). I caught the genetic algorithm bug along with the rest of the internet, so I’m in the middle of writing a Lisp library to make it easier to develop genetic algorithms: Genesis [Github link].
I’ve made some progress in [...]
Source code for Genesis is here until I get asdf-install going.
What are Genetic Algorithms?
Genetic algorithms are one of the best things that computer science has produced. Rather than figuring out a good algorithm yourself, you let your random number generator find one while you sleep! Well, after an up-front design cost to generate proper random [...]
