Hello Again, Looks like Im getting there now. I did this inside the GA module:
def update(self): return self.entities now Im putting it in my code: def my_fitness(entity): x = ga.update() print 'X', x fitness = 0.0 for i in entity: if i == 1: fitness += 1.0 return fitness This fitness fuction sets the evaluation criteria. I does the job, but there is a small problem, it returns too much information! for example in generation 1 it gives: X [[0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]] X [[0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]] X [[0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]] X [[0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]] X [[0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0]] and in generation 2: X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0]] X [[1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0], [1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0]] ##

The question now would be, how to update my objects only if the new list is different from the previous??? _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
