Dealing with malformed input

Hi, 

Is there a way (beside custom functions) to deal with void tuples in a
relations or with non-number atoms in number relation (like empty atom)?

Thank you,
Cosmin

If I understand the question correctly, I think this is a very good point.

Unfortunately, there is no such mechanism at the moment.
