A small genetic algorithm framework written using new Java 8 features
VERSION 1.2 RELEASE 20140922

• Java 8
• Maven 3
• No external dependencies at this time, besides JUnit
• Note that the current Unit Tests are really just eyeball style tests so I can quickly see if things are working.
• See examples in the com.mattring.smallevo.examples package

• 1st example is PhrasesMain.java
• Attempts to evolve a genome to match the incoming phrase.
• java com.mattring.smallevo.examples.phrases.PhrasesMain "I love zebras and elephants"

• 2nd example is TravelingSalesmanMain.java
• Attempts to evolve minimum distance solution to the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP).
• Reads the tsp_destinations.txt file (which can be created with DestinationFileCreatorMain).
• The TSP, as I have defined it, is to find the shortest possible path that:
  1. begins at the salesperson's home base (defined as destination[0])
  2. visits every other destination once
  3. returns to home base
• Provides a javafx-based visual playback of the evolution.
• java com.mattring.smallevo.examples.travelingsalesman.TravelingSalesmanMain
