Includes a sensible default (100-generation generational algorithm) if it is issued only an object of class L. =cut package Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::FullAlgorithm; our $VERSION = ( '$Revision: 1.5 $ ' =~ /(\d+\.\d+)/ ) ; use Carp; use Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::Base; our @ISA = qw(Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::Base); # Class-wide constants our $APPLIESTO = 'ARRAY'; our $ARITY = 1; =head2 new Takes an already created algorithm and a terminator, and creates an object =cut sub new { my $class = shift; my $algo = shift|| croak "No single generation algorithm found"; my $term = shift || new Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::GenerationalTerm 100; my $verbose = shift || 0; my $hash = { algo => $algo, terminator => $term, verbose => $verbose }; my $self = Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::Base::new( __PACKAGE__, 1, $hash ); return $self; } =head2 set Sets the instance variables.
