> Newbie here who can't figure out why this doesn't work:
> start = input("Please enter the starting number.\n>")
> print(type(start))
> while type(start)!=float:
> start = input("Sorry, that number was invalid.\nPlease enter the
starting number.\n>>")
> print(type(start))Google to the rescue. Try this: while not isinstance(start, float) Alan _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
