Yes, for example this is a GA
The long text below is not a puzzle, just a detailed description of a 1-2 minute procedure.
If you are not interested to play as "some kind of" Charlotte Simpson, it can be disregarded safely.
There will be {x,y} number pairs in the other GA-s. They are points sampled from a parabola, a 2nd degree polynomial.
Someone may remember an older puzzle built on the fact that an n-th degree polynomial can be defined by any n+1 points of it.
Here there is no maths puzzle part, just the fact that after collecting any 3 of those {x,y} pairs, it is possible to reconstruct the parabola.
Let us assume we collected {345,478170648326}, {456,478379898200} and {567,478646933564}.
Then we can quickly reconstruct the polynomial using WolframAlpha. After opening the link we have to go to "Use data set of {x,y} values instead". The link suddenly becomes ugly, that is why I have not posted it directly.
"data set of {x,y} values:" enter {{345,478170648326},{456,478379898200},{567,478646933564}}
After a short break it will say 2345 x^2 + 6789 x + 477889192496.
The last part could be a GA code: convert it to hexadecimal, Windows calculator can do it in programmer view. Result is 6F446A6230, and it can be fed directly into the hex-box of xlate - not even spaces are necessary to add.

Ah, it actually was a real GA and not just an example. =D
This seems to be interesting. Will have to take lots of notes...

Okay I got it now,wish luck to me ^^
Also I prefer matlab for those you filty casual :P

Good luck (bit belated, but still)
Web tools are available for everyone, Matlab is not

OMG I did it!! :D I can't believe it!!! :O
This is the weirdest puzzle I have ever seen in any site. Congrats!

Buuut... this GA is a fully specified example :o

Yeah! And I solved it! :D

Ok. I decided not to guess where this all leads to.

Something about the low-hanging fruit makes it so very appealing.
Now on to the real puzzle.
