Please review and add / replace the attached RealVector manipulator operators

Please review and add or replace the attached manipulation operators for the project RealVector.

• ContinuousManipulator: a new manipulation operator that is very useful as improvement method, when getting closer to the global optimum.
• MichalewiczNonUniformAllPositionsManipulator and MichalewiczNonUniformOnePositionManipulator: fixed a minor bug. the operator needs to check the bounds of the manipulated elements of the vector.

Thanks a lot, Andi!

Added ContinuousManipulator in r293.

However, I'm not quite sure about the bug fixes concerning the two Michalewicz manipulators. Is it really necessary to check the bounds directly in the manipulators? There is an additional operator called BoundsChecker for that purpose. Furthermore, I thought that the two variables Minimum and Maximum refer to the sampling range for manipulating each vector element and not to the bounds.

Hi Stefan,

thanks for reviewing and adding the operators!

Concerning the Michalewicz manipulators: you're totally right. I didn't think about the BoundsChecker. Please remove the bounds checking from the mutators. Thanks a lot and have a nice day!

Removed bounds checking in the Michalewicz manipulators in r294

Merged r292:294 into 3.0 release branch in r295
