Nearly all strategies (except brute-force) use
snap=True
which usessnap_to_nearest_config
to find the nearest configuration. Unfortunately, this function does not work well with non-numeric parameters (like strings) since it calculates a distance.This PR fixes this by first checking if there is an exact match for each parameter before attempting to calculate the distance.
After PR, it will be possible to use some of the strategies when dealing with non-numeric parameters.
