308+ Release Date: 6 August 2020
309+
310+ 1. A bug fix in assigning the value to the ``initial_population ``
311+ parameter.
312+
313+ 2. A new parameter named ``gene_type `` is added to control the gene
314+ type. It can be either ``int `` or ``float ``. It has an effect only
315+ when the parameter ``gene_space `` is ``None ``.
316+
317+ 3. 7 new parameters that accept callback functions: ``on_start ``,
318+ ``on_fitness ``, ``on_parents ``, ``on_crossover ``, ``on_mutation ``,
319+ ``on_generation ``, and ``on_stop ``.
