Figure 1-5. Convergence of population

The graph is plotted between the variable ‘x’ and fitness function ‘f (x)’. The
values for the variable ‘x’ ranges from 0 to 9 with the resolution of 0.001. The
dots on the graph are indicating the fitness value of the corresponding
population in the particular generation. Note that in the first generation the
populations are randomly distributed. In the thirteenth generation populations
are converged to the particular value called as the best value, which is equal to
4.165, and the corresponding fitness value f (x) is 8.443.
