In the near future, all the human genes will be identified. But understanding
the functions coded in the genes is a much harder problem. For example, by
using block entropy, one has that the DNA code is closer to a random code then
written text, which in turn is less ordered then an ordinary computer code; see
\cite{schmitt}.
Instead of saying that the DNA is badly written, using our programming
standards, we might say that it is written in a different style -- an
evolutionary style.
We will suggest a way to search for such a style in a quantified manner by
using an artificial life program, and by giving a definition of general codes
and a definition of style for such codes.Comment: 14 pages, 7 postscript figure
