typeof() is used to check if its a number,string or boolean so you can do something like

if typeof(textbox.Text) == "number" then
   --do something
end

To check whether it is a string or a number or a boolean you can use this function called typeof
here is an example:
TypeOfValue
This returned me String in the output because magnus is a string.
in case of textbox you can take the input of the player in the text box and check the type with this.
and then you can use a if statement
if textboxinput == number then
–do what you intend
end
