Debug Output too Cumbersome #9

Open NateyB opened 9 years ago

NateyB commented 9 years ago

Using the debugAlgorithm values floods the console with output, most of which is useless (for 3 arms). We should improve the quality of debug output. (Not marked as beta because not highly relevant if our algorithms work.)

Anton had a System.sleep(500) in his debug statements. Perhaps that could make it more useful? It would run slowly, but the system would have time to catch up. Alternatively, a debug file could be outputted, that contained all information for the algorithm.

Other considerations: only write output on the first trial at each budget, rather than all 1,000.
