Two of the files, `ga_knapsack` and `ga_parentheses`, are purely text output. In the `knapsack problem`, an individual is printed as `fitness<-x_vector`. For example, the successful solution is `15<-1001000`. After each generation, the entire population is printed. This is feasible because the population size is set to 10 elements. Were it larger it wouldn't make sense to print them all. The `knapsack problem` cheats in that it sets the fitness target to be 15. Normally you don't know the value of the best packing.
