How Many Good Programs are There? How Long are They?
We model the distribution of functions implemented by non-recursive programs, similar to linear genetic programming (GP). Most functions are constants, the remainder are mostly parsimonious. The effect of ad-hoc rules on GP are described and new heuristics are proposed. Bounds on how long programs need to be before the distribution of their functionality is close to its limiting distribution ar...

متن کاملHow many genes are there in plants (... and why are they there)?
Annotation of the first few complete plant genomes has revealed that plants have many genes. For Arabidopsis, over 26,500 gene loci have been predicted, whereas for rice, the number adds up to 41,000. Recent analysis of the poplar genome suggests more than 45,000 genes, and partial sequence data from Medicago and Lotus also suggest that these plants contain more than 40,000 genes. Nevertheless,...
متن کاملHow many tastes are there?

There is growing evidence that there are more—perhaps many more. The idea that there are four basic tastes goes back at least as far as ancient Greece, so if there are more than four basic tastes why haven't t...
متن کاملHow many species are there?
'How many species are there' is a question receiving more attention from biologists and reasons for this are suggested. Different methods of answering this question are examined and include: counting all species; extrapolations from known faunas and regions; extrapolations from samples; methods using ecological models; censusing taxonomists' views. Most of these methods indicate that global tot...
