Detailed Description

Converts arbitrary values into float using extended conversion rules:

• Strings are converted to float values
• DateTime: total number of milliseconds since unix epoсh
• Boolean: 1 for true and 0 for false

var value1 = FloatConverter.ToNullableFloat("ABC"); // Result: null
var value2 = FloatConverter.ToNullableFloat("123.456"); // Result: 123.456
var value3 = FloatConverter.ToNullableFloat(true); // Result: 1
var value4 = FloatConverter.ToNullableFloat(new Date()); // Result: current milliseconds
