Problem :


Tutorial :

re
A regular expression (or RegEx) specifies a set of strings that matches it.
A regex is a sequence of characters that defines a search pattern, mainly for the use of string pattern matching.
The re.search() expression scans through a string looking for the first location where the regex pattern produces a match.
It either returns a MatchObject instance or returns None if no position in the string matches the pattern.

Code :
>>> import re
>>> print bool(re.search(r"ly","similarly"))
True

The re.match() expression only matches at the beginning of the string.
It either returns a MatchObject instance or returns None if the string does not match the pattern.

Code :
>>> import re
>>> print bool(re.match(r"ly","similarly"))
False
>>> print bool(re.match(r"ly","ly should be in the beginning"))
True

You are given a string N.
Your task is to verify that N is a floating point number.
In this task, a valid float number must satisfy all of the following requirements:
> Number can start with +, - or . symbol.
    For example:
    ✔+4.50
    ✔-1.0
    ✔.5
    ✔-.7
    ✔+.4
    ✖ -+4.5
> Number must contain at least decimal value.
For example:
12.
12.0 
> Number must have exactly one . symbol.
> Number must not give any exceptions when converted using float(N).



Input Format :

The first line contains an integer T, the number of test cases.
The next T line(s) contains a string N.

Constraints :

  • 0 < T < N

Output Format :

Output True or False for each test case.



Sample Input :

4
4.0O0
-1.00
+4.54
SomeRandomStuff

Sample Output :

False
True
True
False

Explanation :

40O0 :O is not a digit.
- 1.00: is valid.
+4.54: is valid.
SomeRandomStuff: is not a number.
