Genetic Programming is a type of biological inspired machine learning. It is composed of a population of stochastic individuals. Those individuals can exchange portions of themselves with others in the population through the crossover operation that draws its inspiration from biology. Other biologically inspired operations include mutation and reproduction. The form an individual takes can be many things. It, however, is represented most of the time as a computer program. Constructing correct efficient programs can be notoriously difficult. Various grammar, typing, function constraint, or counting mechanisms can guide creation and evolution of those individuals. These mechanisms can reduce search space …
