Yes. My algorithm works. However, the greater the number of alleles, the more slowly any one evolves to maximum fitness. By about 20,000 they all mostly just wander about aimlessly. |
That is not what my results show. With a randomized genome of 20,000 genes (0's and 1's), population of 100, no mutation, your selection algorithm, per generation,

In other words, definitely not drift. It's easy to understand why you saw what you wanted to see within these long strings of numbers.
Which brings us to a broader point. Try to hold your own views skeptically. Instead of trying to merely confirm them, try to falsify them. Even if you think you have demonstrated your point, someone might vary the selection algorithm slightly and produce a different result. You have to be able to explain not only your own results, but everyone else's too.

You never step on the same tard twice—for it's not the same tard and you're not the same person.
