module Puppet::Parser::Functions
  newfunction(:is_numeric, :type => :rvalue, :doc => <<-EOS
Returns true if the variable passed to this function is a number.

The function recognizes only integer and float but not hex or octal
numbers (for now) until a decision is made how to handle these types.

The parameter can be in the native format or given as string representation
of a number.

Valid examples:

  77435
  10e-12
  -8475
  0.2343
  -23.561e3

        "given #{arguments.size} for 1")

    value = arguments[0]

    # Regex is taken from the lexer of puppet
    # puppet/pops/parser/lexer.rb but modified to match also
    # negative values and disallow invalid octal numbers or
    # numbers prefixed with multiple 0's (except in hex numbers)
