Gradients will not be used

## Specification

Alias: none

Argument(s): none

## Description

The `no_gradients` specification means that gradient information is not needed in the study. Therefore, it will neither be retrieved from the simulation nor computed with finite differences. The `no_gradients` keyword is a complete specification for this case.
