So the header might be:

Integer   Float   Text

and the data could be:

1         0.9     Start point
2         0.3     Minimum
3         6.0     End point

and then you want to check the data and validate that they are of the
correct type as indicated by the header? To generate the header
you want that the package finds out which type a certain data type is
and output this type in the header?
