虽然公认的答案是惊人的。我也想分享一个快速解决这个问题的方法。(这也解决了负年龄问题。)

f=lambda age: (age.isdigit() and ((int(age)>=18  and "Can vote" ) or "Cannot vote")) or \
f(input("invalid input. Try again\nPlease enter your age: "))
print(f(input("Please enter your age: ")))

附注:此代码用于python 3.x。

print(f(input("Please enter your age: ")))

虽然try/except块可以工作，但是使用str.isdigit()可以更快更清晰地完成此任务。

while True:
    age = input("Please enter your age: ")
    if age.isdigit():
        age = int(age)
        break
    else:
        print("Invalid number '{age}'. Try again.".format(age=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.")

使用点击:

Click是一个命令行界面库，它提供了向用户请求有效响应的功能。

简单的例子:

import click

number = click.prompt('Please enter a number', type=float)
print(number)

Please enter a number: 
 a
Error: a is not a valid floating point value
Please enter a number: 
 10
10.0

注意它是如何自动将字符串值转换为浮点数的。

检查一个值是否在一个范围内:

提供了不同的自定义类型。为了得到一个特定范围内的数字，我们可以使用IntRange:

age = click.prompt("What's your age?", type=click.IntRange(1, 120))
print(age)

What's your age?: 
 a
Error: a is not a valid integer
What's your age?: 
 0
Error: 0 is not in the valid range of 1 to 120.
What's your age?: 
 5
5

我们也可以只指定一个极限，min或max:

age = click.prompt("What's your age?", type=click.IntRange(min=14))
print(age)

What's your age?: 
 0
Error: 0 is smaller than the minimum valid value 14.
What's your age?: 
 18
18

会员测试:

使用点击。选择类型。默认情况下，该检查是区分大小写的。

choices = {'apple', 'orange', 'peach'}
choice = click.prompt('Provide a fruit', type=click.Choice(choices, case_sensitive=False))
print(choice)

Provide a fruit (apple, peach, orange): 
 banana
Error: invalid choice: banana. (choose from apple, peach, orange)
Provide a fruit (apple, peach, orange): 
 OrAnGe
orange

使用路径和文件:

使用点击。路径类型，我们可以检查现有的路径并解析它们:

path = click.prompt('Provide path', type=click.Path(exists=True, resolve_path=True))
print(path)

Provide path: 
 nonexistent
Error: Path "nonexistent" does not exist.
Provide path: 
 existing_folder
'/path/to/existing_folder

文件的读写可以通过点击完成。文件:

file = click.prompt('In which file to write data?', type=click.File('w'))
with file.open():
    file.write('Hello!')
# More info about `lazy=True` at:
# https://click.palletsprojects.com/en/7.x/arguments/#file-opening-safety
file = click.prompt('Which file you wanna read?', type=click.File(lazy=True))
with file.open():
    print(file.read())

In which file to write data?: 
         # <-- provided an empty string, which is an illegal name for a file
In which file to write data?: 
 some_file.txt
Which file you wanna read?: 
 nonexistent.txt
Error: Could not open file: nonexistent.txt: No such file or directory
Which file you wanna read?: 
 some_file.txt
Hello!

其他的例子:

密码确认:

password = click.prompt('Enter password', hide_input=True, confirmation_prompt=True)
print(password)

Enter password: 
 ······
Repeat for confirmation: 
 ·
Error: the two entered values do not match
Enter password: 
 ······
Repeat for confirmation: 
 ······
qwerty

默认值:

在这种情况下，只需按Enter(或任何你使用的键)而不输入值，就会给你一个默认值:

number = click.prompt('Please enter a number', type=int, default=42)
print(number)

Please enter a number [42]: 
 a
Error: a is not a valid integer
Please enter a number [42]: 
 
42

使用递归函数的持久用户输入:

字符串

def askName():
    return input("Write your name: ").strip() or askName()

name = askName()

整数

def askAge():
    try: return int(input("Enter your age: "))
    except ValueError: return askAge()

age = askAge()

最后，问题要求:

def askAge():
    try: return int(input("Enter your age: "))
    except ValueError: return askAge()

age = askAge()

responseAge = [
    "You are able to vote in the United States!",
    "You are not able to vote in the United States.",
][int(age < 18)]

print(responseAge)

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')
