[Tutor] checking if a variable is an integer?

[Rachel-Mikel ArceJaeger]

Isn't one of the unsolved millenium prize problems one that includes the ability to find all of the prime numbers? I'm not sure if your program is possible if the input number is large.

But to check if a number x is an int, just do this:

x == int(x)
