A Systematic and Meta-Analysis Survey of Whale Optimization Algorithm

Algorithm 3

WOA-BAT algorithm pseudocode.

	Details of the WOA are described below:
	Generate initial population Xi where (i = 1, 2, 3, …, n)
	Initialize f, , r, and A1
	Initialize fMin, fMax
	Calculate the fitness of each solution
	X = the best search agent
	While (t < Max_iterations)
	For each solution
	Update a, A, C, L, and
	If1 ()
	If2 (/A/ < 1)
	Update the position of the current search agent by using Equations (10)–(12)
	Else if2 (/A/ ≥ 1)
	Select a random search agent (Xrand)
	Update the position of the current search agent by using Equations (10)–(12)
	End if2
	Else if1 ()
	Update the position of the current search agent by using Equation (5)
	End if1
	Enf for
	Check if any search agent goes beyond the search space and amend it
	Calculate the fitness of each search agent
	Update X if there is a better solution t = t + 1
	End while
	Return X
