Question: When using NEAT, is there any training happening at all insde the framework? #121

Hi,

Was wondering when I am using NEAT, does it train the networks during the iterations at all or is it up to me to train? Or does NEAT not require training at all and random mutations take care o the fitness instead?

My assumption was NEAT just adjusts the network structure to the best fitting one, but every genome in population still needs to be given feedback and trained until maximum iterations per generation is reached? @
