# Heterozygote Advantage Simulation

Simulations of populations with varying levels of natural selection to observe responses to heterozygous percentages.

## Hypothesis

The rate of natural selection is directly proportional to the frequency of heterozygous genes.

## Installation

[![Run on Repl.it](https://replit.com/badge/github/splch/heterozygote-advantage)](https://replit.com/github/splch/heterozygote-advantage)

```bash

pip install numpy scipy matplotlib pysimplegui

```

## Usage



To run application:

```bash

python hetadv.py

```

Then simply set:

  number of genes,

  birth rate,

  generations,

  and iterations

*Keep in mind this program slows exponentially for more generations (especially above 20).*

## Results



Here we can see a strong correlation between increasing natural selection and frequency heterozygous genes.
