How do I check to see if a submitted value is an INT?

Is there an easy way to check to make sure a submitted value is an int or
double, as opposed to a varchar ... ?

thanks

A submitted value,
as retrieved by the request object,
is always a string,
IMHO.

Perhaps the Qs could be:

Can it be converted to a number?
and can that number be represented as an integer?

To you perhaps, I doubt that the OP knew.

And even so, there are many other readers that think a
request object value can be NUL.
