+/**
+Dump an evaluated individual to a given file.
+
+Note: test if the file could be open only in debug mode
+If the file cannot be open during the calls, everything will fail in an standard exception.
+
+The file name should be given at instanciation, if you asked for a single file, it will
+erase the previously written one and write the new individual in it.
+
+If you do not ask for a single file, it will create several files, 
+one different each time it found a individual. The filenames have then the form: 
+    <filename><count_prefix><count>
+"<count>" being a integer, incremented by one each time a new file is written down.
+
+If you asked for a filename="RESULT", by default, the first dump file will be named "RESULT.0".
