Your reading is perfectly right. I'll check that article. Hope I can manage to plug it with your explanation here.

well is 1000 per chromosome and I might have thousands of chromosomes. This should be as fast as possible anyway. If I know how many gens to mutate I can easily make some other random function that will tell me which of them to mutate

comment How to calculate likelihood to succeed knowing attempts and successful attempts amounts?
I do the -1 so that cases with small Tries don't get a very high number, so that, for example, 1 / 1 doesn't get 100%

Wouldn't (SuccessfulAttempts - 1) / Tries be a good approximation?

comment Optimal sample size?
I DO know the population size. But that's all I know. If I HAVE to pick a confidence level I would say 95% is fine.

No I don't. As I said all I know is the population size, so I guess we would use normal distribution...
