Abstract

A method of automatic programming, called genetic programming, assumes that the desired program is found by using a genetic algorithm. We propose an idea of ant colony programming in which instead of a genetic algorithm an ant colony algorithm is applied to search for the program. The test results demonstrate that the proposed idea can be used with success to solve the approximation problems.
