Do you know about the genetic algorithm? Take this quiz and give answers to some of the commonly asked MCQs related to this evolutionary algorithm. A genetic algorithm is a way of solving some optimization problems that don’t matter if they are constrained or unconstrained. It is essential for one to get a proper hold of this algorithm when it comes to data mining. Do you think you can do so? Try out this quiz and get the chance to test your understanding of the genetic algorithm. Good luck

It cannot result in optimal solutions whereas optimization methods do.
It represents a guided approach whereas optimization follows an unguided approach.
It usually does not conclude in one step like some optimization methods.
It is usually a more efficient problem solving approach than optimization.
A solution that can only be determined by an exhaustive enumeration and testing of alternatives.
A solution found in the least possible time and using the least possible computing resources
A solution that is the best based on criteria defined in the design phase
A solution that requires an algorithm for determination.
When a solution that is "good enough" is fine and good heuristics are available
when there is enough time and computational power available
when the modeler requires a guided approach to problem solving
when there are an infinite number of solutions to be searched
Heuristics are used when the modeler requires a guided approach to problem solving.
Heuristics are used when a solution that is "good enough" is sought.
Heuristics are used when there is abundant time and computational power.
Heuristics are rules of good judgment.
