Stupid question on checking data types

Question

Hi
I want to write a function that can accept a parameter which could be an int or an int array. This is what I have so far:
void translateParams(Object obj) {
Class type = obj.getClass();
if (type.isArray()){
//do something
Two questions - firstly am I going about this the right way (i.e. have the parameter be type "object" and then check to see what it is) or is there a better alternative. Secondly how can I do the javascript equivalent of isNumeric()??

Answer 1

If you need the same method name to accept two parameter types, just overload the method:public void someMethod(int parm){
   // some code
public void someMethod(int[] parm){
   // some code
}If you have common functionality between the two methods, one can call the other:public void someMethod(int parm){
   // some code
public void someMethod(int[] parm){
   for (int i =0;i<parm.length;i++){
      someMethod(parm);
