Method Detail

express

public Trait express(Gene gene,
                     Factory factory)

This is a very simplistic expression method which relies on the values of the traits being from the same domain as the values of the alleles!

Parameters:

gene - the (diploid) gene to be expressed

factory - the implementer of Factory.

Returns:

an instance of Trait_Default whose value is the same as the value for the allele which is first in dictionary order (very arbitrary).

Throws:

DarwinException - if the Gene is not diploid.
