SYNOPSIS

#include "pgapack.h"
void  PGARestart(ctx, source_pop, dest_pop)
PGAContext *ctx
int source_pop
int dest_pop

LOCATION

EXAMPLE

Perform an unspecified test to determine if the current evolution is
not evolving fast enough, and if so, restart the evolution.

PGAContext *ctx;	    PGAEvaluateMS(ctx, PGA_OLDPOP, f, comm);
PGAFitness   (ctx, PGA_OLDPOP);
}

:
if (StagnantEvolution()) {
PGARestart(ctx, PGA_OLDPOP, PGA_NEWPOP);
PGAEvaluate(ctx, PGA_NEWPOP, EvalFunc);
PGAUpdateGeneration(ctx);
}
