Talk:Determine if a string is numeric: Difference between revisions

(Exact definition of IsNumeric?)
Line 21:
Are numbers in other bases (e.g. hexadecimal) allowed (assuming VB supports them otherwise)?
What about numbers too big to fit into a native integer (e.g. "9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999") resp. a native float (e.g. "1e1234567")?
 
: And what is its input? The Python and C samples take a string. The Ruby and Scheme samples take an object. And in Tcl it's the same thing.
