Detailed Description

template<class T, template< class > class ES = vita::std_es>
class vita::search< T, ES >

Search drives the evolution.

Template Parameters

T	individual used
ES	evolution strategy

The class offers a general / customizable search strategy.

Note: The "template template parameter" approach allows coordination between T and ES to be handled by the search class, rather than in all the various code that specializes search. A clear description of this technique can be found in "C++ Common Knowledge: Template Template Parameters" by Stephen Dewhurst (http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=376878).
