Solver's ________ algorithm uses an approach that remembers the best solutions it finds,and then modifies or combines them in attempting to find better solutions.
A)Standard LP/Quadratic
B)Standard GRG Linear
C)Standard Evolutionary
D)Standard GRG Nonlinear

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The approach described in the statement is a key feature of Evolutionary algorithms, which make use of a population of candidate solutions and iteratively improve them through selection, mutation, and recombination. While LP/Quadratic and GRG algorithms may also perform some form of iterative refinement, they typically do not maintain a population of solutions or explicitly use historical information. GRG Nonlinear algorithms can optimize non-linear objective functions but do not use the approach described in the statement.
