Description hawe 2008-07-23 21:12:30 UTC 
BASIC-Function
isnumeric("-") = true

I wrote a math parser and had much trouble with this behavior...
BTW: Is there a way to evaluate a math-string like 1.5*sqrt(81)/4 in OO-BASIC?

confirmed isnumeric("-") does return true

also

isnumeric("+1") returns false

parser needs some love ( or perhaps really it should call the compiler itself to
evaluate the expression ? )

What about this: IsNumeric(" ")?

And what about addressing this to 3.3?
