  my $xmlStr3=<<EOC;
  <op name='CX' type='binary' rate='1'>
  </op>
  EOC
  my $ref3 = XMLin($xmlStr3);

  my $op3 = OpBase->fromXML( $ref3 );
  print $op3->asXML(), "\n";

Base Class

OpBase

DESCRIPTION

Cycle Crossover operator for a GA

new

Creates a new CX operator.

create

Creates a new CX operator. But this is just to have a non-empty chromosome

set

Sets the instance variables. Takes a ref-to-hash as input

apply

Applies CX operator to a ``Chromosome'', a bitstring, really. Can be applied only to victims with the _bitstring instance variable; but it checks before application that both operands are of type VectorIndi.

asXML

Prints as XML, following the EvoSpec 0.2 XML specification. Should be called from derived classes, not by itself.
