| - | In many ways, BF is ideal to use as programmatic genes. Aside from being Turing-complete, which allows it to do anything that can be accomplished with any other programming language, strings of non-functional code can exist and be bypassed. With a single character (command) mutation that bypassed code path can become active, just like actual genetic code consisting of base-pairs. | + | In many ways, BF is ideal to use as programmatic genes.
