Question

I’m new in programming and I have an issue when doing the input validation.
My program requires to input number from 1 to 10 or the letter y but it seems that I cannot do an error handler for this.

def checkingInput():
    while True:
        try:
            a = input()
            if 10 >= a >= 1 or a == 'y':
                return value
            else:
                print('Invalid input!')
        except NameError:
            print('Name error!Please try again!')
        except SyntaxError:
            print('Syntax Error!Please try again!')

Answer 1

as jamylak suggested change the if condition to :

if a == 'y' or 1 <= int(a) <= 10:

program:

def checkingInput():
    while True:
        try:
            a = input('enter')
            if a == 'y' or 1 <= int(a) <= 10:
                return a
            else:
                print('Invalid input!')
        except ValueError:
            print('Value error! Please try again!')
