mutate: Mutate a chromosome

In tjmassaro/ssga: Shotgun Stochastic Genetic Algorithm

Description

Creates point mutations in a chromosome given a mutation rate

Usage

mutate(p0, m.rate)

Arguments

p0	Binary string of 0s and 1s
mut.rate	Mutation rate

Value

Returns p0 in which some loci have been randomly switched depending on the mutation rate

Examples

x <- '00000000'
m.rate <- 0.01

## Example 1
mutate(x, m.rate)
[1] "00000000" #<--No mutation occurred

## Example 2
mutate(x, m.rate)
[1] "00100000" #<--Mutation occurred at the 3rd locus
