Y-chromosome Microsatellite Genealogy Simulator (YMGS 1.0)

!! VERY IMPORTANT NOTE !! : If you downloaded it before August 13, please download again, since an important bug fix has been incorporated in the code. These do not affect the results I posted recently, since these were obtained by a sound version of the code.

NEW UPDATE (Sep 18): the YMGS has been updated (see related erratum).

You can download C++ code for the types of simulations on Y-STRs that I did recently. Feel free to report any bugs, comments, problems, observations, ... at my e-mail address (right sidebar).
