Question

Is it possible to define input times, like time, date, currency or that should be verified manually? Like for example:

morning = input('Enter morning Time:')
evening = input('Enter evening Time:')

.. I need (only) time here, how do I make sure that user enters input in xx:xx format where xx are integers only.

Answer 1

input (in Python 2.any) will return the type of whatever expression the user types in. Better (in Python 2.any) is to use raw_input, which returns a string, and do the conversion yourself, catching the TypeError if the conversion fails.

Python 3.any’s input works like 2.any’s raw_input, i.e., it returns a string.
