// using foreach and is_string menthods
// If you want to check an array if it contains number or notis_string(mixed $value): bool// if you want to test content of a string to match a model
//You should use a regex filter with preg_match who returns 1 or 0
// this filter works for most of cases
/* use this regex */ preg_match("/^[a-z ,.'-]+$/i", your_string);
