# Description
Require that any value that looks like it might be a number (starts with
a digit, or a '-' + digit, or a '+' + digits, or a special form float
like `-inf`, `inf`, or `NaN`) must now be treated as a number-like
value. Number-like syntax can only parse into number-like values.
Number-like values include: durations, ints, floats, ranges, filesizes,
binary data, etc.

Just making sure we see this for release notes 😅
This breaks any and all numberlike values that were treated as strings
before. Example, we used to allow `3,` as a bare word. Anything like
this would now require quotes or backticks to be treated as a string or
bare word, respectively.
# Tests + Formatting
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.
Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:
- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used -A
clippy::needless_collect` to check that you're using the standard code
style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass
> **Note**
> from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows
> ```bash
> use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it
automatically
> toolkit check pr
> ```
# After Submitting
If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the
PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date.
