Class Summary

Class	Description
ChromosomeFitnessComparator	Simple comparator to allow the sorting of Chromosome lists with the highest fitness value in first place of the list.
ClassKit
CommandResult	Container for holding result information after executing an operation
DateKit	Utility functions related to date and time.

LRUCache
MultiClassLoader	A simple test class loader capable of loading from multiple sources, such as local files or a URL.
NetworkKit	Houses network related functionality.
NumberKit	Utility routines related to numbers.
PersistableObject	A wrapper that allows an object to be written to and read from a file.
PluginDiscoverer	This class will (slightly inefficiently) look for all classes that implement a particular interface.
randomHotBits	Implementation of a randomX-compliant class which obtains genuine random data from John Walker's HotBits radioactive decay random sequence generator.
randomJava	Implementation of a randomX-compliant class based upon the built-in Java.util.Random generator.
randomLCG	Implementation of a randomX-compliant class using the simple (and not very good) rand() linear congruential generator given as an example in the ANSI C specification.
randomLEcuyer	Implementation of a randomX-compliant class using L'Ecuyer's two-sequence generator with a Bays-Durham shuffle, as described on page 282 of Press et al., Numerical Recipes in C, 2nd edition.
randomMCG	Implementation of a randomX-compliant class using the "Minimal Standard" multiplicative congruential generator of Park and Miller.
randomX	Abstract superclass for emulations of java.util.Random with various underlying generators.
StringKit	String-related utility functions.
SystemKit	System-related utility functions.
UniqueRandomGenerator
XStreamPassThruConverter	An abstract XSTream converter that offers services for default marshalling and unmarshalling of objects.
