It does not. You can implement different representations by
1. Implementing the protocols in a different way.
2. Subclassing the Chromosome

It does so through templates. Which means that, once again, you have
to write your own class, with the restrictions that templates impose
on it (a restriction very similar to the one imposed by protocols).
But, going back to the principles, there's not much that can be done
with non-binary chromosomes that can be done with other kind of
chromosomes.
You could also try http://kal-el.ugr.es/~jmerelo/GAJS.html (in
JavaScript, probably easier to port to ObjC), and
http://kal-el.ugr.es/GAGS (once again, only binary representation).
See ya!
