A lightweight genetic algorithm library for javascript/typescript.

genetic-lab's Issues

Standard format for chromosomes

It might be necessary to create a standard format for chromosomes and their corresponding genes.

Currently these string formats are tested to work fine with Mutation and Selection functions:

• '010101'
• 'ABCD'
• '01234'
• 'ABC123'

Or in its general form, XXXXXX where X could be anything from 0-9 or A-Z or a-z.

Create more generic functions

Current functions can be improved to support additional parameters. One example is when passing count to selection functions, it should pass something like this instead.

{
  count: 1,
  type: 'rank',
  // ... other parameters that would be supported in the future
}

Custom randomizer function

Currently the library uses the built in Math.random() to generate random values, this affects some parts of selection, crossover, and mutation processes.

Include demo on documentation

To be able to easily understand the library, a demo should be displayed along with the documentation.

• Create a sample usage of the library (Ex. Path finding)
• Add demo to documentation
