[MATH][GENETICS][PR#199] Decision on retention of ASCII Art in Javadoc section

[Avijit Basak <av...@gmail.com>]

Hi All

        I would like to inform everyone that there is some ASCII art in the
javadoc section in some classes like OnePointCrossover etc. This is taken
unaltered from the previous release of math library. We need to decide
whether we should keep them in the next release or remove them. I would
like to request everyone to share their opinion.

Thanks & Regards

As I indicated previously, the top preference has, for years, been to
use links to standard references (either Wikipedia[1] or Mathworld)
when they exist.
These days, nobody will bother making sense of ASCII art whenever
nice graphics and thorough explanations are one click away.
