Hi,

the TinyGP program was designed to do continuous symbolic regression.
If one replaced the arithmetic operations in the eval procedure with
Boolean functions one could also easily do Boolean induction problems.
Anything that deviates significantly from symbolic regression,
however, requires bigger changes. In particular, I don't think it is
possible to get what you are asking for just by changing some numbers
in the input file for TinyGP. Of course, nothing would prevent the
addition of a rand() function (with no arguments), but the fitness
function would definitely be changed.

I hope this helps.

Riccardo
