eval

 built-in. wdyt?

eval is never recommended as basically you could do Args/float='os.system("rm ...")' 🙂
In theory type is stored on the hyper parameter (this is a relatively new feature the backend supports)
The casting though, is done based on the Original value type, which means Task.connect needs to be called with the original dict. Is there a specific reason for using get_parameters instead of task.connect ?
