Worked with Alex P on figuring out why we keep evolving towards small antennas. We think it's because the initial angle is so
large, and the standard deviation of makes it more difficult to bring the antenna within the confines of the hole by mutating the angle than by mutating |

Worked with Alex P to look at the different gain patterns for antennas with different separation distances. We found that there wasn't
a clear frequency where they started to agree--looking at the average frequency gain plots we sent on slack, they look very different. We're trying |

Worked with Alex to change the roulette algorithm to implement a cut on the minimum length for the Antennas. Amy showed that we
don't want to generate antennas which are shorter than 37.5 cm in length (for each cone, so a total of 75 cm all together) because anything shorter |

Found a bug while running the loop, fixed it and starting running again. Added a few things to the paper.
Alex and I will keep the loop running tomorrow. We're gonna try to meet with Eliot and Leo to work on implementing the bug fixes |

Continued the run from yesterday. Alex P and I applied the changes we made to the bash script for fixing the bugs we found in the
simulation number to the database version. Once we get 15 generations of data for this run we'll start testing the database version. Once that works |

(See below the table for a review of the past couple of days since ELOG has been down.)
We may have found what was causing the error in Eliot and Leo's version. They were getting 0 effective volumes. I edited their output macroskeletons |

I hopped on with Alex M to catch him up with what has been done and changed within AraSim so far. I looked into using pointers to access arrays outside
of their declared scope and it seemed reletively easy to set up. I set up a pointer corresponding to the arrays V_forfft, T_forfft, and vmmhz_filter
and set them at the end of stage one in order to be used in stage two. Also made sure to delete the pointers at the end of stage 2 (Very Important). After |
