Romera-Paredes and colleagues’ work is the latest step in a long line of research that attempts to create programs automatically by taking inspiration from biological evolution, a field called genetic ...

Computer programs can use data, evaluate if-then conditions on the data and use extremely fast iterative loops to perform these functions. In software programs, these functions get organized into ...

Overview: Functional programming prevents unintended data changes, reducing errors in large systems.Pure functions improve testing accuracy because outputs depe ...
