Querying number fields appears to force float64

[pedromss]

From the example on the readme:

package main

import "github.com/thedevsaddam/gojsonq"

func main() {
	const json = `{"name":{"first":"Tom","last":"Hanks"},"age":61}`
	age := gojsonq.New().JSONString(json).Find("age")
	println(age.(float64))
}

Why does age get set as a float64 instead of an int or int64? Not very intuitive because looking at the JSON there are no decimal places and the number is small. What's the rationale? Is it always float64?

By default Golang set JSON number to float64, if you need to get the integer value then you can use the Result.As() method

const json = `{"name":{"first":"Tom","last":"Hanks"},"age":61}`
result, _ := gojsonq.New().JSONString(json).FindR("age") // handle error
var age int
result.As(&age) // handle error
fmt.Printf("%#v\n", age)
