public class RandomSelection
extends SelectionMethod
implements SteadyStateBSourceForm

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Parameter	defaultBase()	Returns the default base for this prototype.
void	individualReplaced(SteadyStateEvolutionState state, int subpopulation, int thread, int individual)	Called whenever an individual has been replaced by another in the population.
int	produce(int min, int max, int start, int subpopulation, Individual[] inds, EvolutionState state, int thread, HashMap<String,Object> misc)
int	produce(int subpopulation, EvolutionState state, int thread)	An alternative form of "produce" special to Selection Methods; selects an individual from the given subpopulation and returns its position in that subpopulation.
void	sourcesAreProperForm(SteadyStateEvolutionState state)	Issue an error (not a fatal -- we guarantee that callers of this method will also call exitIfErrors) if any of your sources, or their sources, etc., are not of SteadyStateBSourceForm.

Method Details

defaultBase

public Parameter defaultBase()

Description copied from interface: Prototype

Returns the default base for this prototype. This should generally be implemented by building off of the static base() method on the DefaultsForm object for the prototype's package. This should be callable during setup(...).

Specified by:

defaultBase in interface Prototype

produce

public int produce(int subpopulation,
 EvolutionState state,
 int thread)

Description copied from class: SelectionMethod

An alternative form of "produce" special to Selection Methods; selects an individual from the given subpopulation and returns its position in that subpopulation.

Specified by:

produce in class SelectionMethod

produce

public int produce(int min,
 int max,
 int start,
 int subpopulation,
 Individual[] inds,
 EvolutionState state,
 int thread,
 HashMap<String,Object> misc)

individualReplaced

public void individualReplaced(SteadyStateEvolutionState state,
 int subpopulation,
 int thread,
 int individual)

Description copied from interface: SteadyStateBSourceForm

Called whenever an individual has been replaced by another in the population.

Specified by:

individualReplaced in interface SteadyStateBSourceForm

sourcesAreProperForm

public void sourcesAreProperForm(SteadyStateEvolutionState state)

Description copied from interface: SteadyStateBSourceForm

Issue an error (not a fatal -- we guarantee that callers of this method will also call exitIfErrors) if any of your sources, or their sources, etc., are not of SteadyStateBSourceForm.

Specified by:

sourcesAreProperForm in interface SteadyStateBSourceForm
