  - AbstractListChromosome
```
public AbstractListChromosome(java.util.List<T> representation)
```
    Constructor.
    
    Parameters:
    
    representation - inner representation of the chromosome
  - AbstractListChromosome
```
public AbstractListChromosome(T[] representation)
```
    Constructor.
    
    Parameters:
    
    representation - inner representation of the chromosome
- Method Detail
  - getLength
```
public int getLength()
```
    Returns the length of the chromosome.
    
    Returns:
    
    the length of the chromosome
  - newFixedLengthChromosome
```
public abstract AbstractListChromosome<T> newFixedLengthChromosome(java.util.List<T> chromosomeRepresentation)
```
    Creates a new instance of the same class as this is, with a given arrayRepresentation. This is needed in crossover and mutation operators, where we need a new instance of the same class, but with different array representation. Usually, this method just calls a constructor of the class.
    
    Parameters:
    
    chromosomeRepresentation - the inner array representation of the new chromosome.
    
    Returns:
    
    new instance extended from FixedLengthChromosome with the given arrayRepresentation

public java.lang.String toString()

    Overrides:
