There was a problem hiding this comment.
@emprzy you may want to use parameter_config["value"]["a"].get(float) instead of letting .get choose a type and then using the python casting to float (.get is a method from confuse, our config library, that allow you to get a yaml element and you can specify a type. See https://confuse.readthedocs.io/en/latest/usage.html)

What does your pull request address? Tag relevant issues.
This pull request addresses GH #380. Instances of scientific notation in configs that don't have a decimal in the mantissa AND a sign in the exponent are read in as strings (as opposed to floats), and this circumvents that.
Tag relevant team members.
@saraloo , is this adequate enough to prevent parsing errors? Perhaps there is somewhere else in this file (or places in other files) that needs a
float()cast as well?
