This is a user-friendly program which models the accumulation over time of mutations within a population - as it is affected by numerous biological parameters.

Mendel's Accountant is a biologically realistic, forward-time, parallel, numerical simulation program which models genetic change within a population, as it is affected by selection and mutation.
