All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable

public class Queens
extends DiscreteFunction

Implementation of the a function to return the fitness of the Queens problem. The function class only determines the fitness of the solution by determining the number of conflicts and penalises the fitness if there are.

Method Detail

getClone

public Queens getClone()

Description copied from interface: Cloneable

Create a cloned copy of the current object and return it. In general the created copy will be a deep copy of the provided instance. As a result this operation an be quite expensive if used incorrectly.

Returns:

An exact clone of the current object instance.

Object.clone()

evaluate

public double evaluate(Vector x)

Get the matrix and determine if there are any conflicts. If there are no conflicts... For every direction, there should be no conflicts. Move queen until you run off board

Specified by:

evaluate in class DiscreteFunction

Parameters:

x -

Returns:

The result of the evaluation.

getBoardSize

public int getBoardSize()

Returns:

Returns the boardSize.

setBoardSize

public void setBoardSize(int boardSize)

Parameters:

boardSize - The boardSize to set.
