How can I detect this, I have been running some code for a few days to develop

And my code is skipping some lines as it checks for any erroneous data:
next if grep (/[^0-9.-]/, @data);
But that thinks the scientific notation is bad. I searched the net and didn't
find anything. How can I match this specific pattern and convert it?
