StringUtils isNumeric returns true when input is “

问题:

This question already has an answer here:

• Why is '१२३' numeric? 5 answers

I was reading the commons.apache.org isNumeric method definition and it states:

StringUtils.isNumeric("???") = true;

I am not sure why "???" is considered to be numeric. My guesses are:

• A "?" is considered a unicode digit
• It is some kind of regex pattern

I was able to find the answer to this question by looking at the StringUtils source code for the isNumeric method. In the source code that line appears as:

StringUtils.isNumeric("\u0967\u0968\u0969")  = true

Where u0967, u0968, u0969 are Devangari Digits one, two, and three respectively. This may be a browser issue causing the characters to not be rendered correctly in the API.

Looking at the code, the example is

StringUtils.isNumeric("\u0967\u0968\u0969")  = true

\u0967 is १, which is "Devanagari Digit One"

\u0967 is २, which is "Devanagari Digit Two"

So they are digits!
