There is no strict rule for indention.
Its purpose is to quickly realize the structure. But people are different.
I usually put for/do/done on one indention level, and increase indention of the code block in between
Same for if/then/else/fi (and further indention of the code blocks in between).

If you really use the $gene array (and consequent use of ${gene[ ]} index) then your original IFS="," read -a makes sense, and you don't need the extra IFS stuff that SEA suggested.
Code:
other() {
printf "\n\n"
printf "%s \n" "Please enter gene(s), use a comma between multiple:"
IFS="," read -a genes
for (( i = 0; i < ${#genes[@]}; i++ ))
do
    printf "%s \n" "${genes[$i]}"

PGASetRealInitRange(2)						      PGAPack						    PGASetRealInitRange(2)

NAME
PGASetRealInitRange - sets the upper and lower bounds for randomly initializing real-valued genes. DESCRIPTION
For each gene these bounds define an interval from which the initial allele value is selected uniformly randomly. The user specifies two arrays containing lower and bound for each gene to define the interval. This is the default strategy for initializing real-valued strings. The default interval is $[0,1.0]$ for each gene. INPUT PARAMETERS
ctx - context variable min - array containing the lower bound of the interval for each gene mac - array containing the upper bound of the interval for each gene OUTPUT PARAMETERS
none SYNOPSIS
#include "pgapack.h" void PGASetRealInitRange(ctx, min, max) PGAContext *ctx double *min double *max LOCATION
real.c EXAMPLE
Set the initialization routines to select a value for each real-valued gene i uniformly randomly from the interval [-10.,i] Assumes all strings are of the same length. PGAContext *ctx; double *low, *high; int i, stringlen; : stringlen = PGAGetStringLength(ctx); low = (double *) malloc(stringlen*sizeof(double)); high = (double *) malloc(stringlen*sizeof(double)); for(i=0;i<stringlen;i++) { low[i] = -10.0; high[i] = i; } PGASetRealInitRange(ctx, low, high); 05/01/95 PGASetRealInitRange(2)
