Constructor Detail

Gene.BoundedFloat

public Gene.BoundedFloat(double data,
                         double min,
                         double max)

Gene.BoundedFloat

public Gene.BoundedFloat(double min,
                         double max)

Construct a non-initialized BoundedFloat.

Note: non-initialized (that is Double.NaN) Floats are immune to mutation which is no good starting-point for creating a population.
