determine variable type

[MCollins at seminolecountyfl.gov]

trying to determine a variable type, specifically that a variable is an 
integer.

i tried using type(var) but that only seemed to produce a response in the 
command line.

is there a built in python function to determine if a variable is an 
integer?




--****Florida has a very broad Public Records Law. Virtually all written 
communications to or from State and Local Officials and employees are 
public records available to the public and media upon request.  Seminole 
County policy does not differentiate between personal and business emails. 
 E-mail sent on the County system will be considered public and will only 
be withheld from disclosure if deemed confidential pursuant to State 
Law.****
