 DESCRIPTION:
  The population holds an array of pointers to genomes.  It also keeps
track of the fitness statistics for the genomes in the population.

/* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
size
  Use the size member function to get and set the size of the population.  The
population allocates space for genomes in chunks, so you can vary the 
chunksize as well if you are really tight for space.  The compact member 
function will remove all extra pointers.  If you shrink the population to 0
then you cannot use the 'size' method to make the population bigger.  When
resizing to a larger size, we clone randomly individuals from the existing
population.

sort
  The sort member is defined so that it can work on a const population.  It
does not change the logical state of the population, but it does change its
physical state.  We sort from best (0th individual) to worst (n-1).  The sort
figures out whether high is best or low is best.

evaluate
  If you want to force an evaluation, pass gaTrue to the evaluate member
function.  Otherwise the population will use its internal state to determine
whether or not it needs to do the evaluation.

initialize
  This method determines how the population should be initialized.  The 
default is to call the initializer for each genome.

statistics
  Update the statistics.  We do this only on-demand so that no unneeded 
calculations take place.

diversity
  Like the statistics function, we call this one only on demand.  This member
function can be particularly expensive, especially for large populations.  So
we store the values and update them only as needed.  The population diversity
measure is the average of the individual measures (less the diagonal scores).
