Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodClone
Clone the gene.
Public methodCreateNew
Creates new gene with random type and value.
Public methodCreateNew(GPGeneType)
Creates new gene with certain type and random value.
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGenerate
Randomize gene with random type and value.
Public methodGenerate(GPGeneType)
Randomize gene with random value.
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodMemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Extension Methods
  NameDescription
Public Extension MethodHasMethod
Checks whether an object implements a method with the given name.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodIsEqual
Compares two objects for equality, performing an elementwise comparison if the elements are vectors or matrices.
(Defined by Matrix.)
Public Extension MethodTo(Type)Overloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodToTOverloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.

Remarks

Extended gene function may represent arithmetic functions (+, -, *, /), some common mathematical functions (sin, cos, ln, exp, sqrt) or an argument to functions. This class is used by Genetic Programming (or Gene Expression Programming) chromosomes to build arbitrary expressions with help of genetic operators.
