Can one explain how Genetic Programming is a branch of Genetic Algorithms?

The term genetic algorithm can refer to the specific algorithm developed by John Holland in the 1970s, but is often used as a cover term for many different algorithms that all use an evolutionary process of repeatedly selecting a proportion of the best members of a population of solutions according to some specified criterion and using them to produce a new population of solutions with some chance of mutation and/or recombination. After repeating this procedure many times, the quality of solutions in the population tends to increase as judged by the selection criterion.
Evolutionary programming is what this technique is called when the evolving solutions can be interpreted as computer programs or functions, and this has consequences for the kinds of mutation and recombination operators can be used to modify solutions in the population.

Is a function call a form of branching in C plus plus?
No. A branch is akin to a goto statement in procedural programming. The code branches off to a new code segment, never to return. A function call is akin to a subroutine in structured programming. When the subroutine is finished, control is returned to the instruction immediately following the function call, just as if the function's code were inline expanded at the call site.
What is meant by algorithm profiling?
In recent years, several very efficient exact optimization algorithms have been developed in the computer science community. Examples are maximum flow algorithms, minimum-cost flow techniques, matching methods, which all are graph theoretical approaches or sophisticated branch-and-cut methods, originating in the field of linear optimization. These algorithms have now been applied to problems from physics like for random magnetic materials (random-field systems, spin glasses), in surface physics (solid-on-solid models) and many other disordered systems. The system sizes which can be treated are now much larger than ten years before, allowing the obtain now more reliable and higher significant data.
What are some meanings of the acronym BGE?
The acronym BGE is associated with the company Baltimore Gas and Electric. Some other meanings of the acronym BGE are Beyond Good and Evil, a book authored by Freidrich Neitzsche and in programming languages Branch if Greater or Equal.
Is inventing a branch of science?
it is a sub branch which means that it is a branch inside another and that is physics

What are the characteristics of integer programming problems?
The algorithms to solve an integer programming problem are either through heuristics (such as with ant colony optimization problems), branch and bound methods, or total unimodularity, which is often used in relaxing the integer bounds of the problem (however, this is usually not optimal or even feasible).

Will the solution to an linear programming problem always consist of integers?
No, it will not. In fact, there is a special branch of linear programming which is called integer programming and which caters for situations where the solution must consist of integers.
