   PGARealMutation - randomly mutates a floating point string with probability
   mr.  Three of the four mutation operators are of the form v = v +- p*v.
   That is, the new value of v (allele i) is the old value + or - a percentage,
   p, of the old value. There are three possibilities for choosing p: (1)
   constant value (0.01 by default), (2) selected uniformly on (0,UB) (UB is
   .1 by default), and (3) selected from a Gaussian distribution (with mean 0
   and standard deviation .1 be default).  The change to an allele, p*v, is
   added or subtracted to the old value with a probability of .5. The fourth
   option is to replace v with a value selected uniformly random from the
   initialization range of that gene. Alleles to mutate are randomly selected.
   The value set by the routine PGASetMutationRealValue is used as p, UB, and
   sigma in cases 1,2, and 3, respectively.
