"run.txt" -- Genetic Programming, evolving for Fitness 

  -- Scripting Framework (based in Tcl) for experimenting with GP, 
	with choices of GP languages and problem to which to evolve solutions
 
  -- Choice of Three evolvable languages:
	-- Two new languages written in C++ for speed:
		-- Genetic2005
		-- Lithium4
	-- Evoperl, a subset of Perl, executed by the "perl" command

  -- Choice of Target vectors, each 256 number long, each number in 0..255:
	-- XXXXX:   the number 88 (the letter 'X') repeated 256 times
	-- ones:    0 1 2 3 4 5 ... 255
	-- twos:    0 2 4 6 8 10 ...      (each modulo 256)
	-- sevens:  0 7 14 21 28 ...      (each modulo 256)
	-- squares: 0 1 4 9 16 25 ...     (each modulo 256)
	-- hello:   "hello12345"          (repeated)
	-- letters: "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"   (repeated)

  -- Choice of three general purpose Fitness Functions:
	-- based on distance between target a[256] and current output b[256]:

			        255
		dist(a,b)   =   SUM    | a[i] - b[i] |  *  ( 256 - i )**e
		                i=0

		--  e=0:  simple manhattan distance (in 256 dimensions)
		--  e=1:  "linear wedge"
		--  e=2:  "quadratic wedge"


  -- Utilities for each of the three languages 
	-- random program creation
	-- mutation
	-- crossover
