        Continuous entropy is an exploration policy that is actually implemented as part of the network.
        The exploration policy class is only a placeholder for choosing this policy. The exploration policy is
        implemented by adding a regularization factor to the network loss, which regularizes the entropy of the action.
        This exploration policy is only intended for continuous action spaces, and assumes that the entire calculation
        is implemented as part of the head.

        .. warning::
           This exploration policy expects the agent or the network to implement the exploration functionality.
           There are only a few heads that actually are relevant and implement the entropy regularization factor.
