ksh93 supports the libm int() function i.e.
Code:
#!/bin/ksh93

d=150.50

if (( int(d) == d ))
then
   print "Integer"
else
   print "Not integer"
fi

do
        num=0
        echo -n "$n:"
        case "$n" in
                +([0-9])) echo "int >= 0" ; num=1 ;;
                ++([0-9])) echo "int >= 0" ; num=1 ;;
                -+([0-9])) echo "int < 0" ; num=1 ;;
                +([0-9]).+([0-9])) echo "float >= 0" ; num=1 ;;
                ++([0-9]).+([0-9])) echo "float >= 0" ; num=1 ;;
                -+([0-9]).+([0-9])) echo "float <= 0" ; num=1 ;;
