Last change on this file since 911 was 832, checked in by gkronber, 16 years ago

simplified StandardCrossOver to a simple sub-tree swapping crossover with max size and height constraints.
The old version should probably be revived as HL2StandardCrossover.

#393 (Refactor GP crossover operators to extract common code into the abstract base class GPCrossoverBase)
