Python判断字符串是否为字母或者数字(浮点数)的多种方法

>> float('Nan')
nan
>> float('Nan')
nan
>> float('nan')
nan
>> float('INF')
inf
>> float('inf')
inf
>> float('-INF')
inf
>> float('-inf')
inf

def is_number(str):
  try:
    # 因为使用float有一个例外是'NaN'
    if str=='NaN':
      return False
    float(str)
    return True
  except ValueError:
    return False
float例外示例
 >>> float('NaN')
 nan

def is_number(s):
  try:
    complex(s) # for int, long, float and complex
  except ValueError:
    return False
  return True

def is_number(s):
  try:
    float(s) # for int, long and float
  except ValueError:
    try:
      complex(s) # for complex
    except ValueError:
      return False
  return True

def is_number(n):
  is_number = True
  try:
    num = float(n)
    # 检查 "nan" 
    is_number = num == num  # 或者使用 `math.isnan(num)`
  except ValueError:
    is_number = False
  return is_number
>>> is_number('Nan')  
False
>>> is_number('nan') 
False
>>> is_number('123') 
True
>>> is_number('-123') 
True
>>> is_number('-1.12')
True
>>> is_number('abc') 
False
>>> is_number('inf') 
True

# str必须是uniconde模式
>>> str = u"345"
>>> str.isnumeric()True
