NSGA-II is one of the most popular multi-objective evolutionary optimization algorithms,
introduced by Deb. et al. in 2002 (see "A Fast and Elitist Multiobjective Genetic Algorithm: NSGA-II",
IEEE Trans. on Evolutionary Computation, vol. 6, no. 2, pp. 182-197).
The crowding distance is one of the key elements in NSGA-II.
This function illustrates its computation. It is intended as a tutorial for students willing
to learn NSGA-II.
