implementation of the simulated annealing algorithm. We start with a given state, find
all its neighbors. Pick a random neighbor, if that neighbor improves the solution, we move
in that direction, if that neighbor does not improve the solution, we generate a random
real number between 0 and 1, if the number is within a certain range (calculated using
temperature) we move in that direction, else we pick another neighbor randomly and repeat the process.
Args:
search_prob: The search state at the start.
find_max: If True, the algorithm should find the minimum else the minimum.
max_x, min_x, max_y, min_y: the maximum and minimum bounds of x and y.
visualization: If True, a matplotlib graph is displayed.
start_temperate: the initial temperate of the system when the program starts.
rate_of_decrease: the rate at which the temperate decreases in each iteration.
threshold_temp: the threshold temperature below which we end the search
Returns a search state having the maximum (or minimum) score.
