IsValid

Determine whether the given value is a string, numeric, or date.Arrays, structs, queries, closures, classes and components, and other complex structures will return false.

Note we expressly do not support the eurodate type, since date formats vary across EU countries. For this, prefer the LSIsDate( date, locale ) method instead.
