gp_userfcn.m

function gp = gp_userfcn(gp)
%GP_USERFCN Calls a user defined function once per generation if one has been specified in the field GP.USERDATA.USER_FCN.
% 
%   Remarks:
%
%   The user defined function must accept (as 1st) and return (as 2nd) the
%   GP structure as arguments.
%
%   Example:
%
%   In multigene symbolic regression the function
%   regressmulti_fitfun_validate can be called once per generation to
%   evaluate the best individual so far on a validation ('holdout') data
%   set.
