GAStoppingCriteria.MaximumGeneration (biojava-legacy 1.9.5 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.biojavax.ga.GAStoppingCriteria.MaximumGeneration

All Implemented Interfaces:

GAStoppingCriteria

Enclosing interface:

GAStoppingCriteria
```
public static class GAStoppingCriteria.MaximumGeneration
extends Object
implements GAStoppingCriteria
```
Simple Implementation of GAStoppingCriteria, signals a GeneticAlgorithm to stop after n generations
Useful for pausing and seeing what the state of the algorithm is at any particular time and possibly changing parameters etc before calling the run() method of the GeneticAlgorithm again.
