  /// Standard GE mappers:
  ///   Rule = Codon Value % Number Of Rules
  ///   
  /// 𝜋GE:
  ///   𝜋GE codons consist of (nont, rule) tuples, where nont may be one value from an "order"
  ///   integer vector and rule may be one value from a "content" integer vector.
  ///   
  ///   Order:   NT   = nont % Num. NT      ... determines, which non-terminal to expand next
  ///   Content: Rule = rule % Num. Rules   ... rule determination as with standard GE mappers
  /// 
  /// Four mutation and crossover strategies possible:
  ///  * Order-only:    only "order" vector is modified, "content" vector is fixed (1:0),
  ///                   worst result according to [2]
  ///  * Content-only:  only "content" vector is modified, "order" vector is fixed (0:1),
  ///                   best result according to [2]
  ///  * 𝜋GE:           genetic operators are applied equally (1:1), 
  ///  * Content:Order: genetic operators are applied unequally (e.g. 2:1 or 1:2),
  /// 
  /// Here, the "content-only" strategy is implemented, as it is the best solution according to [2]
  /// and it does not require much to change in the problem and evaluator classes.
