Genetic Algorithms in Elixir: wrong syntax in ch. 4, termination criteria for one_max ?
@seanmor5
In chapter 4 of p1.0 (page 89 of 262 in the epub version), the code for the avg termination criterion looks like this:
def terminate?(population) do
avg =
population
|> Enum.map(&(Enum.sum(&1) / length(&1)))
avg == 21
end
For me, this causes a syntax error:
protocol Enumerable not implemented for %Types.Chromosome
Presumably because the call to fitness_function() is missing. This version works for me:
avg =
population
|> Enum.map(&OneMax.fitness_function/1)
|> Enum.sum()
|> (fn x -> x / length(population) end).()
although it’s not very elegant (esp. the last line looks ugly), so I’d much prefer something closer to the original version.
