I really love the elegance of algorithms like these, a bunch of similar algorithms are discussed in Clever Algorithms[1].
It also discusses genetic algorithms[2], providing a really simple implementation that suffers from the same problem as the article in question; the outcome you're looking for is already known so the fitness function is rather trivial, but nonetheless its a good place to get started.
