In many programming languages, there is no built-in isnumber function, but we can write a function ourselves to check whether a value is a number. The following is an example of writing an isnumber function in Python to determine whether a value is a number:
def isnumber(value): try: float(value) return True except ValueError: return False
In this example, we use Python's exception handling mechanism. We try to convert the input value to a floating point number and return True if the conversion is successful, otherwise False.
In other programming languages, you can also write similar functions to determine whether a value is a number. The basic idea is to try to convert the input value into a number, and if the conversion succeeds then it is a number, otherwise it is not. The exact syntax and implementation details may vary depending on the programming language used.
