The "GeneticCode" C++ class is designed to generate versions of the genetic code subject to the requirements of the three major models of the genetic code origin and evolution (about these models see, e.g., Koonin & Novozhilov, 2009, IUBMB Life).

This class was written specifically to perform statistical test for the paper Makukov & shCherbak (2017), but it might be used for a wider class of studies related to the genetic code.

By default, the class "GeneticCode" generates alternative genetic codes, with the reqirement of block structure, and, optionally, with the assumption of stereochemical or biosynthetic models (to impose the assumption of the adaptive model, simply filter the codes using the error_cost() function). See Appendix in Makukov & shCherbak (2017) for the description of the algorithm.

The code requires Qt 5. To compile the provided example, run 'qmake' to produce the Makefile, and then run 'make' to compile the executable file.
