T - The type of evolved candidate that this pipeline operates on.public class EvolutionPipeline<T> extends Object implements EvolutionaryOperator<T>
A compound evolutionary operator that applies multiple operators (of the same type) in series.
By combining EvolutionPipeline operators with SplitEvolution operators,
elaborate evolutionary schemes can be constructed.
