Two different forms of the while-loop structure, count-controlled loop and event-controlled loop, are investigated. The results suggest that both forms of the while-loop structure can be successfully evolved in GP, the system with the while-loop structure is more effective and more efficient than the standard GP system for the two problems, and the evolved genetic programs with the loop-structure are much easier to interpret. %@ 3-540-30462-2
