| WriteChild Call |
- call WriteChild ( selected, seg, n, source ) ;
The WriteChild call assigns values to a selected child solution from within a user crossover operator. The inputs to the WriteChild subroutine are as follows:
selected |
is an array specifying the selected family of solutions. The selected array is normally passed into the user subroutine that calls WriteChild, and should be passed unaltered to WriteChild. |
seg |
is the segment to which the elements are to be written. |
n |
is the child within the family to which the elements are to be written. A value of 1 is for the first child, 2 for the second, and so on. |
source |
is an array containing the values to be written. |
The WriteChild subroutine is called inside a user crossover operator subroutine to assign to the elements of a selected child solution. It is normally used to complete the action of the crossover operator.
