Abstract
Genetic programming (GP) as an automatic programming method has been rapidly gaining more attention of researchers in the last few years. GP techniques rooted in biological evolution started effectively in early 90's with an attempt to evolve computer programs without being explicitly programmed to do so. This paper provides an extensive survey of genetic programming technique. Initially this paper deals with the fundamental theoretical issues associated with GP and later this emphasises on the diverse fields of its applications.
