PGASetRealInitPercent(2) PGAPack PGASetRealInitPercent(2)
NAME
PGASetRealInitPercent - 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. With this routine the
user specifies a median value and a percent offset for each allele.
INPUT PARAMETERS
ctx - context variable
median - an array containing the mean value of the interval
percent
- an array containing the percent offset to add and subtract to the median to define the interval
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
none
SYNOPSIS
#include "pgapack.h"
void PGASetRealInitPercent(ctx, median, percent)
PGAContext *ctx
double *median
double *percent
LOCATION

EXAMPLE
Set the initialization routines to select a value for each real-valued
gene i uniformly randomly from the interval [i-v,i+v], where $v = i/2$.
Assumes all strings are the same length.
