Is String? block
It has the same behaviour as the IsNumber one but it checks a String instead of a Number

does the is string? method make sense?
usually a string can contain alphanumeric characters and/or numbers…
so is string? will always be true?
or will it return false, if the value is boolean (true or false)
or do you want to provide a method, which returns the same as

A String can contain numbers, yes, but an Integer can’t contain letters
Also, you can check along Lists, Integers or other type of blocks like a Component
Also, with your example, you just discard that it’s NOT a number, but you don’t know exactly if it’s a String or a List or a Component or a Boolean (true and false)
