Specified by:

getVariant in interface MutationSelector

Parameters:

mutation - Mutation for which to retrieve the selected variant.

Returns:

The selected mutation variant.

setMutationCount

public void setMutationCount(int count)

Description copied from interface: MutationSelector

Sets the total number of mutations that may be passed to this selector (typically the number of mutations in a mutation table).

This is useful for some selectors, such as those that implement random selection criteria.
