I don’t see that writing a mutli-purpose code for an ‘evolution’ like this program used would be particularly useful. The author says that the generation took three hours and I presume it would take longer if you used code that wasn’t written specifically for generating image production evolution. I was trying to think of other processes which might benefit from a similar program in order to consider if a general evolution program would be effective or useful. What others can you think of?

Funnily enough I used to spend some of my teenage years making some fairly crude evolution sims in Basic. One of these days I’ll have to pick up a proper language and start writing some more. I’d really like to see something that is much more dynamic, rather than working towards a set goal.
