Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Solution<T>	cloneWithNewValue(T value)
double	evaluationValue() Returns the fitness of this solution.
T	unwrap() Returns the real value of this solution.
Solution<T>	withEvaluation(double evaluation) Updates the evaluation of this solution.

Method Detail

evaluationValue

double evaluationValue()

Returns the fitness of this solution. If the fitness was not computed, the returned value will be Double#NaN.

withEvaluation

Solution<T> withEvaluation(double evaluation)

Updates the evaluation of this solution.

This function returns a new instance.

Parameters:

evaluation - new evaluation value

Returns:

a copy of this solution with new evaluation

unwrap

T unwrap()

Returns the real value of this solution.

cloneWithNewValue

Solution<T> cloneWithNewValue(T value)
