Teach Your Computer to Code FizzBuzz

Explore evolutionary algorithms and genetic programming in this interactive Java programming workshop from ACCU 2019. Learn how to implement machine learning techniques inspired by natural evolution to solve problems like the FizzBuzz counting game. Gain hands-on experience using the Java Class Library for Evolutionary Computing (JCLEC) framework to evolve solutions, starting with simple examples and progressing to more complex applications. Discover the components of evolutionary algorithms, including solution representations, fitness measures, and diversity preservation operators. By the end, acquire practical skills to extend and implement these powerful techniques for automatic bug fixing and genetic improvement of programs.
