pop::size is actually pop::size*2

[jbmouret]

This does not change anything but this can be counter-intuitive when we evaluate the number of fitness evaluation.

OK to fix?

Why is it pop::size*2?

JB I am guessing that you are referring to the fact that two offspring are generated for each element in the population, this is why it is pop::size*2.

I am ok with fixing this.

Ohh okay. That's true.

@jbmouret what fix are you suggesting?

[jbmouret]

I propose to simply divide pop::size by 2 in the reproduction loop.

I don't have a problem with this (or any) solution.

Seems okay, but we need to double our pop::size in our experiments (in order to get the results of the same quality)..
