Comment:
Here is a patch for the documentation of `simon_two_descent()`, including
a new doctest using the example from the ticket description.
There are a few other improvements to the docstring. In particular, it
contained several calls to `set_random_seed()`. These can't have any
effect, because Simon's script runs inside a separate GP interpreter with
its own random state, so I removed these.
