How do I implement genetic algorithms in Python?

To implement genetic algorithms in Python, you can use libraries like DEAP or create your own from scratch. Would you like a basic example?

Yes, please provide a simple example.

Sure! Here's a basic outline: 1. Define a fitness function. 2. Create an initial population. 3. Select parents based on fitness. 4. Apply crossover and mutation. 5. Repeat until convergence.

Can you show me the code for that?

Absolutely! Here's a simple code snippet:

import random

# Fitness function
def fitness(individual):
    return sum(individual)

# Create initial population
population = [[random.randint(0, 1) for _ in range(10)] for _ in range(100)]

# Selection, crossover, and mutation logic goes here...

Would you like more details on any specific part?

Yes, explain the selection process.

The selection process involves choosing individuals based on their fitness scores. Common methods include roulette wheel selection and tournament selection. Would you like to see an example of one of these methods?
