[Python-ideas] Re: String method to check for a float

[Debashish Palit]

Having such a method in the core helps avoid writing the function repeatedly. 
(This would especially help beginners.)
My version is suited to the core language as a string method. parse_value as 
given by Dennis Sweeney is suited to user code.
