9.1: Genetic Algorithm: Introduction - The Nature of Code

Welcome to part 1 of a new series of videos focused on Evolutionary Computing, and more specifically, Genetic Algorithms. In this tutorial, I introduce the concept of a genetic algorithm, how it can be used to approach "search" problems and how it relates to brute force algorithms.
