Class Mutator_Random

java.lang.Object
  net.sf.tostring0.AToString
      com.rubecula.darwin.domain.genetics.Mutator_
          com.rubecula.darwin.domain.genetics.Mutator_Random

All Implemented Interfaces:

Chancy, Mutator, net.sf.tostring0.Identifiable, net.sf.tostring0.IToString

Direct Known Subclasses:

Mutator_PepperedMoth, Mutator_TS

public class Mutator_Random
extends Mutator_
implements Chancy

Lifespan: permanent. This type of mutator uses a random number generator to determine whether or not to mutate. It implements the Chancy interface. All new instances of this type construct new Randomizer instances.

Parameters:

Method Detail

mutate

public Allele mutate(Allele allele)

Description copied from class: Mutator_

By default, the allele is returned unchanged. TEST

Specified by:

mutate in interface Mutator

Overrides:

mutate in class Mutator_

Parameters:

allele - the original allele

Returns:

either the original allele or a mutated version of it. TODO it seems to me now that this mutation should operate on a Gene, not on an Allele, but there again we have to remember that the word "gene" is used in two different ways in common parlance.

setBands

public void setBands(int[] bands)

Parameters:

bands -

setOdds

public void setOdds(int odds)

XXX

Specified by:

setOdds in interface Chancy
