I have done just as you said. I have also added the following lines
to my params file:

gp.build.uniform.min-size = 2
gp.build.uniform.max-size = 5

But when I try to run it again, I get the following error:

FATAL ERROR:
ec.gp.build.Uniform was asked to build a tree with functionset f0
rooted with type edge, but cannot because for some reason there are no
trees of any valid size (within the specified size range) which exist
for this function set and type.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To be honest, I am not sure if this is due to any limitations in
Uniform, or if there is any error in my parameter files. I have tried
to change min-size and max-size, but I get the same results. Do you
have any idea what the problem could be? I have checked the javadocs
for Uniform, but the algorithm is a little bit difficult to follow.

Best regards,

Artur Matos.
