As the specification states, the value of any user defined parameter is a string; so if other data types are needed they are 
to be parsed to a string if need for more complex objects as parameter value arises, they are either to be serialized(or parsed 
somehow similar to the bit-efficient parsing), or we can customize the speciffication and use a template or overload it
