This program strives towards efficiently generating approximately optimal groups from a given dataset through a genetic algorithm with the utilisation of a fitness-function. A group of six first-year students at AAU, studying CS, has worked on this project through a period of two months.
Compile program through makefile. Simply run make and make clean to remove executable and .o-files.
Execute program with groupforming.exe or ./groupforming depending on your platform. If you wish to set the debug flag at launch time, parse the -v argument at execution.
The program will prompt the user at each stage that user-intervention is needed with contextual instruction.
