Browsing through material on genetic computer methods I have on several occasions encountered a very interesting phenomenon – genetic methods that exploit flaws in their environment to help achieving their goals.
Using genetic methods, people try to “breed” software that best meets the task that is to be solved (the goal), just like nature’s evolution processes [...]
