        env_fn : A function which creates a copy of the environment.
            The environment must satisfy the OpenAI Gym API.

        actor_critic: A function which takes in placeholder symbols 
            for state, ``x_ph``, and action, ``a_ph``, and returns the main 
            outputs from the agent's Tensorflow computation graph:

                                           | the policy, of taking actions ``a_ph``

                                           | in ``x_ph``. (Critical: make sure 
                                           | to flatten this!)

        ac_kwargs (dict): Any kwargs appropriate for the actor_critic 
            function you provided to VPG.

        seed (int): Seed for random number generators.

        steps_per_epoch (int): Number of steps of interaction (state-action pairs) 
            for the agent and the environment in each epoch.

        epochs (int): Number of epochs of interaction (equivalent to
            number of policy updates) to perform.

        gamma (float): Discount factor. (Always between 0 and 1.)

        pi_lr (float): Learning rate for policy optimizer.

        vf_lr (float): Learning rate for value function optimizer.

        train_v_iters (int): Number of gradient descent steps to take on 
            value function per epoch.

        lam (float): Lambda for GAE-Lambda. (Always between 0 and 1,
            close to 1.)

        max_ep_len (int): Maximum length of trajectory / episode / rollout.

        logger_kwargs (dict): Keyword args for EpochLogger.

        save_freq (int): How often (in terms of gap between epochs) to save
            the current policy and value function.
