"""This example illustrates the usage of creator, evaluator and generator.

All the steps of airfoil creation & evaluation are detailed here;
furthermore, the generator.py module contains certain presets
(default airfoils).

Create an airfoil;
Evaluate an airfoil;
Generate a population of airfoils & optimize.
