Thanks for the content. I have a question: if the candidate solution set is known, why not to exclude a candidate from the solution set every time we notice that it is not better than the current best solution? In that way we eliminate the possibility of choosing the same inefficient solution.

Great lecture, thanks for sharing it. Quick question, in the IF loop when comparing “Best” and “S” what does Quality measure? I thought about it as a route for routing problem, then I pick one route randomly and set it as “Best” and then another route as “S”, then the Quality I see it as the most economical one (if we look for the route with the min cost) Am I right with this interpretation of Quality(*)? Thanks for your feedback!
