Digital organism

A digital organism is a self-replicating computer program that mutates and evolves.

Description

Digital organisms are used as a tool to study the dynamics of Darwinian evolution, and to test or verify specific hypotheses or mathematical models of evolution.

The study of digital organisms is closely related to the area of artificial life.
