This folder contains the Java source code used to produce the examples
and experiments in the book.  The source code is contained in four
folders: EC1, EC2, EC3, and EC4.  Each of these folders contains a
self-contained version of the software that can be compiled and run
independently of the others.  EC1 is the simplest version, and the
others constitute a sequence of increasingly more complex versions.

One of the goals has been to keep this software as platform
independent as possible.  It has been successfully compiled and
executed on standard Unix, Linux, Windows, amd Mac OS X platforms.
So, it is quitely likely that, after downloading this software to your
machine, the following should get you up and running:
	 cd EC1
	 javac EC1.java 
	 java EC1

The same sequence should work for each of the four folders.  Within
each folder is a README file that describes the details of that
particular version of the EC system.  The behavior of individual EC
runs is controlled by a .cfg file.  Each folder contains examples of
.cfg files.  Their format and content is described in detail in the
README files in that folder.

The software in these folders is copyrighted and licensed under the
Academic Free license v. 2.1.  Copies of the licence are in each of
the folders.

Enjoy!
