My sister wants to know if anybody could make a program (non-calc) that could do some genetic stuff, so basically it would tell you the physical aspects after breeding two creatures, you don’t see the actual traits you just guess on how they will look if you breed them. She also wants it to be able to display pedigrees. If anybody wants to take on this project I’ll get some more info from her for you
Post some details. I've got some spare time (for once) this summer and I'm trying to sharpen my C# skills. Post me up a nice abstract and I'll see what I can do.
....what do you mean by abstract?
Just post what you would want the user-input to be, and what you want the program to do with it. The programmer needs to know exactly what the program should be outputting.

It sounds like a cool project, I'd like to work on it if I had the time, but I'm afraid I don't really have the time at the moment. Sad
Reminds me of the Project Evolve I did for science fair a couple years ago to demonstrate genetic algorithms and emergent behavior.

So its some sort of simulator? I barely remember my biology, but how is the program supposed to know which traits are dominant/recessive, or tied to the Y chromosome, etc...? Or is this pedigree supposed to show every conceivable possibility?
I don't have all the info on this but I'll get it to you as soon as I get home

Excellent. On a side note, can you all please grow up? You are a good part of the reason that there are no girls on the internets. I'm getting sick of editing all your posts. Razz

LIES. I found a ginormous cache of them, on a fairly nerdy forum. And I'm *not* sharing where it is either. Wink


One word: traps.
I wont be able to type it up this weekend, I have a thing called YC that I'm going to, so I wont be on much this weekend

Are they rapping to Jesus on the frontpage?

lol Ster-e-er-e-o

Reminds me of when I first heard about "Christian Death Metal" Such fail.
wow that is a fail...hmm how about this, or this
Eeems: ever listen to the Grits?
yep, they'll be there so I will listen to them tonight too
eh, I didn't get to listen to the Grits, but Red and TFK were amazing. I also picked up a Haste the Day cd which is epic.
ok, YC is over so I'll try to get the stuff typed up tomorrow is I don't get stuck in a convo with my girlfriend. (Yes I did say that Razz )

You find her at the YC?
maybe, maybe not
