this is, with a given arrayRepresentation.
 This is needed in crossover and mutation operators, where we need a new instance of the same class, but with
 different array representation.
 Usually, this method just calls a constructor of the class.
chromosomeRepresentation - the inner array representation of the new chromosome.Copyright © 2003–2016 The Apache Software Foundation. All rights reserved.
