Phil Steitz commented on MATH-207:
----------------------------------

Committed a slightly modified version of David's last patch in r784604.

Other than minor javadoc/formatting changes to make checkstyle happy, I also 
made the shared source of randomness pluggable.

I am not 100% happy with the static randomGenerator attached to 
GeneticAlgorithm, though I understand and support the need to ensure 
reproducibility for some applications.  Comments / suggestions for better ways 
to do this welcome.

Leaving open as we need to update the user guide to complete this.
