Cat Genetic Algorithm
This is an incomplete implementation of a cat generic algorithm based on real world examples.
This code is basically just a little training piece for me to get started with Python.
Right now it supports the following phenotypes:
- gender/sex
- black and red
- agouti and non-agouti
- point colouring and solid colouring
- dilluted colors or non-diluted
- fur length
It understands that certain color combinations have a new name/term. (For example agouti + tortoiseshell becomes "torbie".)
It also understands that certain color combinations are not valid (unless a mutation or gene defect occurs).
Functionality:
When running the code it will read the genetic markup of the parent and turn the output into valid phenotypes.
Further plans:
I want to support more than just the above phenotypes and also at some point add a visual representation of the cats that are put out. I am not actively working on it at the moment but will come back to it eventually.
Code is messy and still a working/experimenting sheet.
