Genetic Algorithm

* 1(GA) An evolutionary algorithm which generates each individual from some encoded form known as a chromosome or genome Chromosomes are combined or mutated to breed new individuals Crossover, the kind of recombination of chromosomes found in sexual reproduction in nature, is often also used in GAs Here, an offspring's chromosome is created by joining segments choosen alternately from each of two parents' chromosomes which are of fixed length
GAs are useful for multidimensional optimisation problems in which the chromosome can encode the values for the different variables being optimised
