I want to check a single value inside a list and see whether its an integer or a string?

Python provides a built-in function type(object) that will return object's type, whether it be string, integer, or user-defined. If you wanted to print the type of each object in a list, I would recommend taking an approach similar to this:

for item in list:
    print "%s -> %s." % (item, type(item))
