🧬 Intelligent Algorithm
The system uses a gradual fitness genetic algorithm with:
Hard Constraints: No double-bookings, respects teacher availability
Soft Constraints: Balanced daily distribution for classes and teachers
Population: 50 chromosomes × 80 generations with 8% mutation
Result: Optimal schedule in 15-30 seconds
