Use a more descriptive name for this. What does the variable do?

I've adapted the code for the Numeric search as we may want to add more floating types here. Please note that you used a return value of parseNumericValueInput (the middle one, min), which I thought was a dirty trick to acquire an instance of std::variant. So I made my own here.

0.0F
I'd probably also be explicit here and use float(0) and double(0) to make sure the right alternative is being set in the variant

The literal suffix "f" (or "F" which Clang-tidy wanted me to use) is used to turn doubles into floats. It's what forces std::variant to accept the desired type.

I know the suffix makes it a float but explicitly writing out the type is better in my opinion

Does it make sense to separate this out to a separate search tool instead of merging it into the numeric find tool?

How would it fit here? I'm not trying to say it's impossible, just show me your PoC.

I didn't compile it yet but if it's just a few extra options, they could be hidden unless a floating point type is selected.
I'm fine with having it as a separate tool too but functionality-wise it would fit in the Numeric search tool

Thank you! I really like the idea of the tool |

Any news for this ? |

This very well may be a new PR after considering the possibilities and testing... This doesn't implement all the things I wanted to, but I could add more commits here to see how it can go.
