    How about an application that assists developers who've run out of ideas for applications to come up with ideas for applications ? Perhaps using genetic alligatorrhythms ? bill

      Given the amount of information you have provided us regarding your skill level, target platform(s), development time line, development environment, projected application price, etc. I can only point you to something like this: http://www.epa.gov/greenapps/ideas.html[^] Soren Madsen

        Why only make it generate iseas when it can implement them directly? Let it generate source code, compile it and let the fitness function select by size and the number of errors and warnings. Eventually we will get huge programs that compile without errors. Testing and selecting by the usefulness of those programs will not be as trivial to do.

                Create an app that would allow you to post pictures of people recycling.

                ..since other apps do not allow posting of pictures of people if they be recycling? :doh:

                  Indeed. I can say with my hand on my heart than none of my apps allow you to post pictures of people recycling.

                    I'd say that is because none of your apps does allow posting pictures, at all?

                                    Why bother assessing fitness? Just make it post the code to CP and ask for debugging help.

                                        How about an app for creating menu bars that can be embedded into other apps?

                                          How about an application that assists developers who've run out of ideas for applications to come up with ideas for applications ? Perhaps using genetic alligatorrhythms ? bill

                                          That's one I'd like to see later!
