I want to see if a number is decimal what is the way to do it?

Do you mean float?

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

1. >>> num = 1.2345
2. >>> isinstance(num, float)
3. True
4. >>>

I guess you could do the following test:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

1. a = 1.23
2. if(a%1 == 0):
3.  print "integer"
4. else:
5.  print "float"
6.  

Would ofcourse fail for 1.0 etc, but then I guess it doesn't matter if its float
