rlevo-evolution 0.3.0

//! Mutation operators for real-valued genomes.
//!
//! Every mutation is an in-place-ish tensor transform: it consumes a
//! population tensor and returns a new one with noise added per gene.
//! The noise is sampled from a caller-supplied host `rng` and
//! materialised via `Tensor::from_data`, rather than seeding the
//! process-wide backend RNG (`B::seed` + `Tensor::random`). Host
//! sampling keeps results reproducible across thread schedules: the
//! global Flex RNG mutex would otherwise interleave draws with sibling
//! tests under the parallel runner.
