The Genetic Programming Engine project is a framework for running Genetic Programming problems. You simply write up a few classes representing the problem you are trying to solve, plug them into the engine, and run.

What is Genetic Programming?

Genetic Programming (GP) is a technique that utilizes the principles of evolution and computer programming to solve problems.

The basics of the GP algorithm operate as follows. A large number of potential solutions – the Population – are tested against the problem. The results of this test are used to select high-performance solutions, which are then modified slightly to create the next Population. As the algorithm progresses, new modifications that improve the solutions will slowly percolate into the Population until a complete solution to the problem is found.
