Translation Notice
This is an AI-generated English translation of Evolución a la vista. Algoritmos genéticos en un laboratorio interactivo, Spanish edition 1.0, published on October 31, 2026 (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.23835733). The exact source is the repository tag v1.0, commit 75b82d8.
The Spanish edition is the original reference text prepared and reviewed by the authors. The English text translates that edition. All eleven chapters are translated.
Translation: Codex (GPT-6) translated chapters 1–5, and Claude (Cowork, configured model claude-opus-5-5) translated chapters 6–11, on October 31, 2026. Both assistants checked the text against the source for terminology, numbers, formulas, citations, links, and activity settings, and revised the English for naturalness. The authors then reviewed the English text manually, chapter by chapter, in November 2026, and corrected it where needed. Later revisions are possible. This translation has its own DOI, 10.5281/zenodo.23913810, in a Zenodo record separate from the Spanish original, with the PDF, HTML, and sources of this edition. To always point to the latest English version, use the DOI for all versions, 10.5281/zenodo.23890033.
