public interface Evaluator

Evaluator is an interface to a custom evaluator for a specific problem. The evaluator indicates to the search algorithm whether to evaluate a trial point and if so what the score of the trial point is. Optimization is a search in a constrained space of points for a solution with an optimal score. Each problem has a custom evaluator that scores trial points so that the search algorithm can make a directed search for the best solution.
