/// Macro to optimizes the simulation parameters by adopting an evolutionary
/// searching strategy. Specifically, krABMaga provides a genetic algorithm-based approach.
/// The macro will generate a dataframe with the results of the exploration.
/// The dataframe can be saved in a csv file.
///
/// # Arguments
///
/// * `init_population` - function that creates the population, must return an array of individual (an individual is the state of the simulation to compute)
/// * `fitness` - function that computes the fitness value, takes a single individual and the schedule, must return an f32
/// * `mutation` - function that perform the mutation, takes a single individual as parameter
/// * `crossover` - function that creates the population, takes the entire population as parameter
/// * `state` - state of the simulation representing an individual
/// * `desired_fitness` - desired fitness value
/// * `generation_num` - max number of generations to compute
/// * `step` - number of steps of the single simulation
/// * `reps` - number of repetitions of the simulation using each individual (optional, default is 1)
///
/// Last parameter is the computing mode to use.
/// Without the last parameter, the macro will use the default computing mode (Sequential).
/// The computing mode can be:
/// * `ComputingMode::Parallel`: the exploration will be performed in parallel
/// * `ComputingMode::Distributed`: the exploration will be performed distributing the computation on different machines
/// * `ComputingMode::Cloud`: computation will be performed on the cloud.

/// # Arguments
///
/// # Arguments
/// * `init_population` - function that creates the population, must return an array of individual. An individual is the state of the simulation to compute
/// * `fitness` - function that computes the fitness value, takes a single individual and the schedule, must return an f32
/// * `selection` - function that select pair of individuals with some criterion and create a new individual for the next generation
/// * `mutation` - function that perform the mutation, takes a single individual as parameter
/// * `crossover` - function that creates the population, takes the entire population as parameter
/// * `cmp` - function that compare two individuals, takes two individuals as parameter and return true if the first is better than the second
/// * `state` - state of the simulation representing an individual
/// * `desired_fitness` - desired fitness value
/// * `generation_num` - max number of generations to compute
/// * `step` - number of steps of the single simulation
