Typo in the documentation of MBH #162

Open flant8 opened 2 months ago

flant8 commented 2 months ago

Describe the bug There is a typo in the pseudo code of MBH. The counter i should be equal to 0 when the best individual is improved and increase when it is not. Indeed the stop_criteria is the maximum run of the UDA such that the best individual is not improved. How I would modify the pseudo code:

> Select a pygmo population
> Select a UDA
> Store best individual
> while i < stop_criteria
> > Perturb the population in a selected neighbourhood
> > Evolve the population using the algorithm
> > if the best individual is improved
> > > update best individual
> > > i=0
> > else
> > > increment i

Additional context Not sure if a typo can be considered a bug. If not, sorry for reporting it as a bug.
