基于Daniel Q和Patrick Artner的优秀建议， 这里有一个更普遍的解决方案。

# Assuming Python3
import sys

class ValidationError(ValueError):  # thanks Patrick Artner
    pass

def validate_input(prompt, cast=str, cond=(lambda x: True), onerror=None):
    if onerror==None: onerror = {}
    while True:
        try:
            data = cast(input(prompt))
            if not cond(data): raise ValidationError
            return data
        except tuple(onerror.keys()) as e:  # thanks Daniel Q
            print(onerror[type(e)], file=sys.stderr)

我选择了显式的if和raise语句，而不是assert， 因为断言检查可能被关闭， 而验证应始终开启以提供健壮性。

这可以用来获得不同种类的输入， 使用不同的验证条件。 例如:

# No validation, equivalent to simple input:
anystr = validate_input("Enter any string: ")

# Get a string containing only letters:
letters = validate_input("Enter letters: ",
    cond=str.isalpha,
    onerror={ValidationError: "Only letters, please!"})

# Get a float in [0, 100]:
percentage = validate_input("Percentage? ",
    cast=float, cond=lambda x: 0.0<=x<=100.0,
    onerror={ValidationError: "Must be between 0 and 100!",
             ValueError: "Not a number!"})

或者，回答最初的问题:

age = validate_input("Please enter your age: ",
        cast=int, cond=lambda a:0<=a<150,
        onerror={ValidationError: "Enter a plausible age, please!",
                 ValueError: "Enter an integer, please!"})
if age >= 18: 
    print("You are able to vote in the United States!")
else:
    print("You are not able to vote in the United States.")

def validate_age(age):
    if age >=0 :
        return True
    return False

while True:
    try:
        age = int(raw_input("Please enter your age:"))
        if validate_age(age): break
    except ValueError:
        print "Error: Invalid age."

试试这个:-

def takeInput(required):
  print 'ooo or OOO to exit'
  ans = raw_input('Enter: ')

  if not ans:
      print "You entered nothing...!"
      return takeInput(required) 

      ##  FOR Exit  ## 
  elif ans in ['ooo', 'OOO']:
    print "Closing instance."
    exit()

  else:
    if ans.isdigit():
      current = 'int'
    elif set('[~!@#$%^&*()_+{}":/\']+$').intersection(ans):
      current = 'other'
    elif isinstance(ans,basestring):
      current = 'str'        
    else:
      current = 'none'

  if required == current :
    return ans
  else:
    return takeInput(required)

## pass the value in which type you want [str/int/special character(as other )]
print "input: ", takeInput('str')

使用try-except来处理错误并重复一次:

while True:
    try:
        age = int(input("Please enter your age: "))
        if age >= 18:
            print("You are able to vote in the United States!")
        else:
            print("You are not able to vote in the United States.")
    except Exception as e:
        print("please enter number")

好问题!您可以尝试以下代码。=)

这段代码使用ast.literal_eval()来查找输入的数据类型(age)。然后按照以下算法:

请用户输入年龄。 1.1. 如果age为float或int数据类型: 检查年龄>是否=18。如果age>=18，打印相应的输出并退出。 检查0<年龄<18。如果0<age<18，打印适当的输出并退出。 如果age<=0，请用户再次输入age的有效数字(即返回步骤1)。 1.2. 如果age不是float或int数据类型，则要求用户再次输入她/他的年龄(即返回第1步)。

这是代码。

from ast import literal_eval

''' This function is used to identify the data type of input data.'''
def input_type(input_data):
    try:
        return type(literal_eval(input_data))
    except (ValueError, SyntaxError):
        return str

flag = True

while(flag):
    age = raw_input("Please enter your age: ")

    if input_type(age)==float or input_type(age)==int:
        if eval(age)>=18: 
            print("You are able to vote in the United States!") 
            flag = False 
        elif eval(age)>0 and eval(age)<18: 
            print("You are not able to vote in the United States.") 
            flag = False
        else: print("Please enter a valid number as your age.")

    else: print("Sorry, I didn't understand that.") 

我是Unix哲学“只做一件事并把它做好”的忠实粉丝。捕获用户输入并验证它是两个独立的步骤:

使用get_input提示用户输入，直到输入成功 使用可以传递给get_input的验证器函数进行验证

它可以保持简单如(Python 3.8+，使用walrus操作符):

def get_input(
    prompt="Enter a value: ",
    validator=lambda x: True,
    error_message="Invalid input. Please try again.",
):
    while not validator(value := input(prompt)):
        print(error_message)
    return value

def is_positive_int(value):
    try:
        return int(value) >= 0
    except ValueError:
        return False

if __name__ == "__main__":
    val = get_input("Give a positive number: ", is_positive_int)
    print(f"OK, thanks for {val}")

示例运行:

Give a positive number: -5
Invalid input. Please try again.
Give a positive number: asdf
Invalid input. Please try again.
Give a positive number:
Invalid input. Please try again.
Give a positive number: 42
OK, thanks for 42

在Python < 3.8中，你可以像这样使用get_input:

def get_input(
    prompt="Enter a value: ",
    validator=lambda x: True,
    error_message="Invalid input. Please try again.",
):
    while True:
        value = input(prompt)
        if validator(value):
            return value
        print(error_message)

您还可以在终止应用程序之前处理KeyboardInterrupt并打印友好的退出消息。如果需要，可以使用计数器限制允许的重试次数。
