# Some rules about Java Property Lists, which is what the
# system uses for parameters.  Java property lists are a little weird:
# 
# 1. Lines with only whitespace are ignored.
# 2. Lines beginning with a # are ignored.
# 3. Initial whitespace is trimmed.  The property is everything up to 
#    the next chunk of whitespace or a '='
# 4. A following '=' is *optional*
# 5. After the chunk of whitespace and the optional '=', the next
#    whitespace is trimmed.
# 6. Typically, EVERYTHING after that is the value of the property, 
#    up to but not including a '\n'. However, my version trims off
#    the final bit of whitespace if any.
# 7. If two parameters of the same name are found, the later one
#    is used.
#
# Some examples and warnings:
#
# LINE (begins at | )          PROPERTY(between /'s)  VALUE(between /'s)
#
# |yo.yo.yo! = heave ho               /yo.yo.yo!/            /heave ho/
# |my parameter                       /my/                   /parameter/
# |my=parameter                       /my/                   /parameter/
# |my= parameter                      /my/                   /parameter/

# |#this is a comment
# |    # this is NOT                  /#/                    /this is NOT/

# |myparameter=                       /myparameter/          //
# |myparameter                        /myparameter/          //
# |=myparameter                       //                     /myparameter/
# |watch out here!                    /watch/                /out here!/

#
# The '.' is the delimiter for hierarchical elements.  
# You generally shouldn't begin or end a property with an '.'
#
# If you want a list to first load some parent lists, include them as parameters:
#
#    parent.0 = filename for 0
#    parent.1 = filename for 1
#    ....
#
# The parameters will load as follows: your parameters will get checked first,
# Then parent 0 (and all its ancestors), then parent 1 (and all its ancestors),
# and so on.

# Here are a few default values for administration stuff -- you can
# find some basic evolution parameters in simple/params



# ec.Evolve
# ==============================

# This parameter has been deprecated

# ECJ used to use this as its initial random seed by default.  No longer, now
# it's assumed to be the wall clock time by default.
# seed.0 = 				4357
seed.0 =				time




# ec.EvolutionState
# ==============================

# We're not writing checkpoint files.  If we were, we'd do it every
# generation, and the prefix to all the files would be "ec.*"
