Note:

A 'number expression' is made of an optional operator representing by its mathematical symbol and a (prositive/negative) number.

Equals to=
Not equals to!=
Greater than>
Greater than or equals to>=
Less than<
Less than or equals to<=


(warning) By default, this function only includes issues with at least one subtask even if you use the '<' or '<=' operator.
   You must explicity add 'issues NOT IN hasSubtasks()' clause to your query, if you also want to search for issues without subtasks.
