- org.apache.commons.math.genetics.FixedGenerationCount

All Implemented Interfaces:

StoppingCondition
```
public class FixedGenerationCount
extends java.lang.Object
implements StoppingCondition
```
Stops after a fixed number of generations. Each time isSatisfied(Population) is invoked, a generation counter is incremented. Once the counter reaches the configured maxGenerations value, isSatisfied(Population) returns true.
