NAME
Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::GenerationalTerm - Checks for termination of an algorithm.
SYNOPSIS
my $gt = new Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::GenerationalTerm 100; #apply will return false after 100 generations
Base Class
Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::Base
DESCRIPTION
Checks for termination after a number of generations
METHODS
new( [$number_of_generations = 100] )
Creates a new generational terminator:
my $gt = new Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::GenerationalTerm 100; #apply will return false after 100 generations
will make the "apply" method return false after 100 calls
reset
Resets the number of generations to 0
apply()
Checks if the counter has arrived to the allotted number of generations, returns false when it does.
$gt->apply();
will return "false" when it has been run for the number of times it has been initialized to

Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::FullAlgorithm needs an object of this class to check for the termination condition. It's normally used alongside "generation-type" objects such as Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::Easy
There are other options for termination conditions: Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::NoChangeTerm, Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::Convergence_Terminator and Algorithm::Evolutionary::Op::DeltaTerm.
