Evolution strategy toolbox (Feb 2000). 					

Evolution strategy( evol_str ) is a toolbox which use a set of basic
rules (applied to a population) that have an analogy with the rules of
biological evolution. The order in which this rules are applied
determines an evolution strategy.

The specific strategy is the following:

"n" individuals (parents) of the population are selected (in this case
they all are selected) and combined, producing one population of
sons. Each one of the individuals of this population of sons is
mutated, decodified, and it is assigned its corresponding aptitude
value. The initial population (parents and sons) is jointed together,
selecting the best fitted individuals from them. This will be the next
population of the following generation. The formerly described
strategy is repeated until the pre-established number of iterations is
completed or the task is solved.
