Description:
First implementation of evolve. Ecology and evolutionary biology package providing 3 different biology programs: an allele flow program, a demography program, and an island migration program. The allele flow program demonstrates how the frequency of an allele changes over time when being affected by 3 genetic driving forces: selection, mutation, and genetic drift. The Demography program shows the change in distribution of individuals across different life stages after a number of generations. The island migrations program demonstrates the concept of gene flow and how migrations between islands can affect the allele frequencies of those islands.
