Beginner question: help ensuring input is a number

[snippsat]

Doing unnecessary stuff there ezdev.
No need to check type,and is same code use try/except(should not be bare).

Catch the error(ValueError) if input need a integer,and give a message to try again.
If use function can use return,the no need to break out.
Function will only return a number, int(input(' ')) or float(input(' '))

def foo():
    while True:
        try:
            odds_input = int(input('Enter a number: '))
            return odds_input
        except ValueError:
            print('Sorry please enter a valid number,try again')

print(foo())
