Comment by Lee Belbin (@Tasilee) migrated from spreadsheet: Validation equivalent to amendment

[chicoreus]

For consistency with #112 and #39 and #24 should probably have internal prerequisites not met if either of the information elements has a value that is not a number.

Propose changing:

INTERNAL_PREREQUISITES_NOT_MET if dwc:maximumlevationInMeters or dwc:minimumElevationInMeters is EMPTY; COMPLIANT if the value of dwc:minimumElevationInMeters is a number less than or equal to the value of the number dwc:maximumElevationInMeters, otherwise NOT_COMPLIANT

To:

INTERNAL_PREREQUISITES_NOT_MET if dwc:maximumlevationInMeters or dwc:minimumElevationInMeters is EMPTY or either is not a number; COMPLIANT if the value of dwc:minimumElevationInMeters is a number less than or equal to the value of the number dwc:maximumElevationInMeters, otherwise NOT_COMPLIANT

I agree and have made the change.

I note that we have used here "is not a number;" but elsewhere (e.g., #87) we use "interpretable as a number". How do you want to play this? I'd opt for the former (Occam).

Also, I presume the ER would also apply to #24?

[tucotuco]

"is a number" sounds simple even if it might not be as rigorously correct. An example would be for the month field because entomologists use Roman numerals, but we say "is an integer" there, so it seems perfectly reasonable to say "is a number" here.

I'm not sure what you mean by "also apply to #24", but certainly the pattern should be consistent.

[Tasilee]

I have aligned the Expected Response of #24 with this one.

Splitting bdqffdq:Information Elements into "Information Elements ActedUpon" and "Information Elements Consulted".

Also changed "Field" to "TestField", "Output Type" to "TestType" and updated "Specification Last Updated"
