179+ Args:
180+ solution (list): A solution containing genes, potentially with duplicate values.
181+ gene_index (int): The index of the gene for which to find a unique value.
182+ min_val (int): The minimum value of the range to sample a number randomly.
183+ max_val (int): The maximum value of the range to sample a number randomly.
184+ mutation_by_replacement (bool): Indicates if mutation is performed by replacement.
185+ gene_type (type): The data type of the gene (e.g., int, float).
186+ step (int, optional): The step size for generating candidate values. Defaults to 1.

187188 Returns:
188- selected_value : The new value of the gene. It may be identical to the original gene value in case there are no possible unique values for the gene .
189+ int : The new value of the gene. If no unique value can be found, the original gene value is returned .
