                 Programming(GP) with Simulated Annealing (SA) and
                 Stochastic Iterated Hill Climbing (SIHC) based on a
                 suite of program discovery problems which have been
                 previously tackled only with GP. All three search
                 algorithms employ the hierarchical variable length
                 representation for programs brought into recent
                 prominence with the GP paradigm. We feel it is not
                 intuitively obvious that mutation-based adaptive search
                 can handle program discovery yet, to date, for each GP
                 problem we have tried, SA or SIHC also work.",
