PGASetUserFunction(8)						      PGAPack						     PGASetUserFunction(8)

NAME
       PGASetUserFunction  -  specifies  the  name of a user-written function call to provide a specific GA capability (e.g., crossover, mutation,
       etc.).

DESCRIPTION
       This function MUST be used when using a non-native datatype and must be called once for each of:
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_CREATESTRING	   -- String creation
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_MUTATION	   -- Mutation
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_CROSSOVER	   -- Crossover
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_PRINTSTRING	   -- String Output
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_COPYSTRING	   -- Duplication
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_DUPLICATE	   -- Duplicate Checking
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_INITSTRING	   -- Initialization
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_BUILDDATATYPE    -- MPI Datatype creation
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_STOPCOND	   -- Stopping conditions
	 PGA_USERFUNCTION_ENDOFGEN	   -- Auxiliary functions at the end of each generation

       It MAY be called when using a native datatype to replace the built-in functions PGAPack has for that datatype (For example, if the  Integer
       data  type  is  used  for a traveling salesperson problem, the user may want to provide their own custom crossover operator).  See the user
       guide and the examples in the examples directory for more details.

       constant
	      - symbolic constant of the user function to set
       f      - name of the function to use

OUTPUT PARAMETERS
       none
