*COMPUTE THE MIN/MAX AND CONVERT TO PARAMETERS DATASET*
=======================================================

Takes a base numeric value and applies a min/max scale-factor range with a fixed step size to generate a swept parameter list, then packages the results as a Parameters Dataset. Use this worker to quickly build a design-variable range for DOE or parameter studies from a single seed value.

Inputs
------

.. list-table::
   :header-rows: 1
   :widths: 20 20 20 20 20 20

   * - Label
     - ID
     - Type
     - Default
     - Required
     - Description
   * - Parameter Name
     - param_name
     - scalar
     - Param
     - ✓
     - Name label assigned to the parameter column in the output dataset (e.g. 'Thickness'); defaults to 'Param' if left unchanged.
   * - Start Number
     - number
     - scalar
     - 1.0
     - ✓
     - Base (seed) numeric value to which the scale-factors are applied; dimensionless scalar, defaults to 1.0.
   * - Min Scale-factor
     - min_sf
     - scalar
     - 0.5
     - ✓
     - Minimum scale-factor multiplied against the base value to produce the lower bound of the sweep; dimensionless, defaults to 0.5.
   * - Max Scale-factor
     - max_sf
     - scalar
     - 1.5
     - ✓
     - Maximum scale-factor multiplied against the base value to produce the upper bound of the sweep; dimensionless, defaults to 1.5.
   * - Step Size
     - step_size
     - scalar
     - 0.1
     - ✓
     - Increment between successive scale-factor levels spanning [min_sf, max_sf]; smaller values yield finer resolution, defaults to 0.1.
