Abstract
In this work I introduce genetic programming [5] as a general technique to produce programs with arbitrary behavior. I discuss genetic programming and its application the task of symbolic regression. I introduce behavioral genetic programming [6] as an extension to genetic programming and explore various extensions to it. The codebase that I build is made sufficiently flexible to easily accommodate future adaptions to the behavioral genetic programming methodology. I test the performance of the implementation of behavioral genetic programming along with several extensions.
