Floating point intervals?

[wmayner]

Perhaps this is out of scope given the intended application in genomics, but it would be wonderful if this library worked with floating-point ranges as well.

Yes, agreed. There is no reason it cannot be done afaicr, float equality will lead to hiccups, but it likely does not matter.

It is not going to be something I do very soon, only have six months of my PhD. But if enough people tell me here that they desire this functionality and why, I might be persuaded :)

I would accept and help out on prs :)

Try the FNCLS in 0.0.53. See here: https://github.com/biocore-ntnu/ncls/blob/master/examples/test_fncls.py

Would love to hear how you use it and please remember to cite our paper :)
