Hello,

thanks.

One other question, when a member of the population is selected for
reproduction, does it stay on the roulete for future "parent" selectioons?

Or is it taken out for diversity?

Thanks.

Well, if you intend to "mimic evolution" closely best specimens are
usually selected for reproduction as often as possible. So you may base
your selection process solely on the value of fitness function, or you
may go for diversity within your possible candidates (again based on
fitness function).
