"""Tournament selection which use the size of the individuals in order
to discriminate good solutions. This kind of tournament is obviously
useless with fixed-length representation, but has been shown to
significantly reduce excessive growth of individuals, especially in GP,
where it can be used as a bloat control technique (see
[Luke2002fighting]_). This selection operator implements the double
tournament technique presented in this paper.
The core principle is to use a normal tournament selection, but using a
special sample function to select aspirants, which is another tournament
based on the size of the individuals. To ensure that the selection
pressure is not too high, the size of the size tournament (the number
of candidates evaluated) can be a real number between 1 and 2. In this
case, the smaller individual among two will be selected with a probability
*size_tourn_size*/2. For instance, if *size_tourn_size* is set to 1.4,
then the smaller individual will have a 0.7 probability to be selected.
.. note::
In GP, it has been shown that this operator produces better results
when it is combined with some kind of a depth limit.

fitness tournament
:param parsimony_size: The number of individuals participating in each \
size tournament. This value has to be a real number\
in the range [1,2], see above for details.
:param fitness_first: Set this to True if the first tournament done should \
be the fitness one (i.e. the fitness tournament producing aspirants for \
the size tournament). Setting it to False will behaves as the opposite \
(size tournament feeding fitness tournaments with candidates). It has been \
shown that this parameter does not have a significant effect in most cases\
