would someone please explain how it does so?
exactly where in this code is the number of offspring entered?
what does s(t,1,2,0) mean? how might one use other factors, weighted or whatever, to contribute
to the score?

what is InvestedEnergy(t)?

how about a breakdown of the code or some hints using the discussion tab above?
a clue, a hint ... anything! tnx Griz^talk 16:37, 25 Feb 2006 (MST)

' returns the fittest robot (selected through the score function)
' altered from the bot with the most generations
' to the bot with the most invested energy in itself and children

  Dim t As Integer
  Dim s As Double
  Dim Mx As Double
  Mx = 0
  For t = 1 To MaxRobs
    If rob(t).Exist And Not rob(t).Veg Then
      s = score(t, 1, 2, 0)
      If s >= Mx Then
        Mx = s
        fittest = t
      End If
    End If
