Complex Parameter Types
list A list of subparameters. Note that because a list is an anonymous data structure, the tag 
names of subparameters are ignored.
example:
<param type=”list”>
 <item>42</item>
 <item>FALSE</item>
 <item type=”string”>Camelot!</item>
</param>
would generate:
param=[42, False, “Camelot!”]
dict A dictionary of subparameters. The tag names of the subparameters will become the keys of 
the dictionary.
example:
<param type=”dict”>
 <first>1</first>
 <second>TRUE</second>
 <third type=”string”>It’s only a model.</third>
</param>
would generate:
param={“first” : 1, “second” : True, “third” : “It’s only a 
model.”}
