IsFloat(1.5e3) ;returns 0 since 1.5e3 = 1500
IsFloat("12.345") ;returns 0 since is a string




Function Reference
IsHWnd
Checks if a variable's base type is a pointer and window handle.
IsHWnd ( variable )
Parameters
variable The variable/expression to check.

Return Value
Success:

Returns 1 if the expression is a pointer type AND a valid window handle.

IsInt ( variable )
Parameters
variable The variable/expression to check.

Checks if a variable is a keyword (for example, Default).
IsKeyword ( variable )
Parameters
variable The variable to check.

Return Value
Success:

Returns 1 if variable is a keyword.

Function Reference
IsBool
Checks if a variable's base type is boolean.

Function Reference
IsDeclared
Check if a variable has been declared.
IsDeclared ( expression )
Parameters
expression string representing name of the variable to be checked.

Return Value
Success:

Returns 1 for Global variable or variable declared outside functions.
Special:

-1 for Local variable.
Failure:

Return 0 when no variable can be found.

Remarks
If there is a need to use IsDeclared() to check that a variable exists, then in most
situations Assign() should be used to create/write to the variable and Eval() should
be used to read from the variable.
