my @data = (-123.004,-.008,0,-0,.0987,1.1,1.0,1.0001,12345,'d','test')
+;


foreach my $value (@data){
        if($value =~ /(\d.*)/) {
                print "$1 is  true\n";
        }
        else{
                print "false\n";
        }
}

Update

I add another values to @data, so @data become :

my @data = (-123.004,-.008,0,-0,.0987,1.1,1.0,1.0001,12345,'d','test',
+'d5','5d', '0d5', 'd0d');

and /(\d.*)/ wont work for this @data

Solved it with /^(-?)(\d+)(\.?)(\d*)$/

Have a look at skeeve's || ysth's code
