The GA Playground is a general purpose genetic algorithm toolkit where the user can define and run his own optimization problems. The toolkit is implemented in the Java language, and requires (when used as an application, in its full mode), a Java compiler and a very basic programming knowledge (just enough for coding a fitness function). Defining a problem consists of creating an Ascii definition file in a format similar to Windows Ini files, and modifying the fitness function in the GaaFunction source file. In addition, other methods can (optionally) be overwritten (e.g. the drawing method), other classes can be extended or replaced, and additional input can be supplied through Ascii files.
