+  newfunction(:is_numeric, :type => :rvalue, :doc => <<-DOC
+    Returns true if the given argument is a Numeric (Integer or Float),
+    or a String containing either a valid integer in decimal base 10 form, or
+    a valid floating point string representation.
+
+    The function recognizes only decimal (base 10) integers and float but not
+    integers in hex (base 16) or octal (base 8) form.
+
+    The string representation may start with a '-' (minus). If a decimal '.' is used,
+    it must be followed by at least one digit.
+
+    Valid examples:
+
+      77435
+      10e-12
+      -8475
+      0.2343
