Oops!  That was a serious oversight on my part.  Thanks for calling it
to my attention.  In between step 6 and 7 it should say something like:

There is mutation, which consists of making some random changes to some
parts of the chromosome.  If the chromosome is binary, some bits are
chosen at random to be toggled.  If it's a string of floats, then some
or all of them are changed by a random amount.

I will update the website.
