    genetic algorithm

    Hi there

    Has anybody used genetic algorithms for scheduling school
    time tables . if u know of any code or know how to build the
    algorithm please reply a.s.a.p

    I'll be waiting

    No I haven't but I know the basics of Genetic Algoritms, so I guess i could instruct you what to do if you could go into detail about rules and calculation of fitness.
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    Timetable programming is always a hard one. My dad used to do it for his last school and he regularly tore his hair out.

    The problem is that there are so many many many different possibilities:
    1) Pupils in classes
    2) Teachers for classes
    3) Lessons at times
    4) Lunches

    I was going to write a genetic algorithm for my computing project for this but I decided not to - its very hard.

    I'd be interested in what you find out bharatm.
    There are 10 types of people in the world - those that understand binary, and those that don't.
