:::: I added the following because I was getting the same random sequence every time. Not sure if there's a more efficient way to do that... <code>srand ( time(NULL) );</code> and included <time.h>

== Genetic Algorithm Okay? ==
I've included a Genetic Algorithm implemented in MATLAB. I am unaware if this was okay or not. Genetic Algorithms are considered a subset of evolutionary programming and are very similar to Evolutionary Algorithms, but have a few differences in the way they go about evolving the population. I made sure to include some of the differences between Genetic Algorithms and straight Evolutionary Algorithms, but i believe the code i posted would be a great resource for anyone who wants to implement a vectorized GA in MATLAB (and i have tried to comment out the code well enough that people will understand it).
If you guys disagree that the Genetic Algorithm should be included then i may go ahead and make a new task for it. It just didn't seem quite different enough to warrant its own task. Let me know what you guys think!
