input data validation

[plumberpy]

1 2 3 4 5 6

while True:      try:          x = int(input("Please enter a number: "))          break      except ValueError or x>10:          print("Oops!  That was no valid number.  Try again...")

Copied from python.org.

I added in the "or x>10" as I need to keep the number below 10.

The data validation should be before the except ValueError step. How can I add the additional criterion?

Thanks.

P/S

Realised a backdoor to my problem.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

while True:      try:          x = int(input("Please enter a number: "))          if x < 10:             break      except ValueError or x>10:          print("Oops!  That was no valid number.  Try again...")

Any better or proper way to solve this? Thanks.

Add if block inside try

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

while True:      try:          x = int(input("Please enter a number: "))          if 0 < x < 10:               break          else:              print('Please, enter number between 0 and 10')      except ValueError:          print("Oops!  That was no valid number.  Try again...")

or inside else block

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

while True:      try:          x = int(input("Please enter a number: "))      except ValueError:          print("Oops!  That was no valid number.  Try again...")      else:          if 0 < x < 10:               break          else:              print('Please, enter number between 0 and 10')

Noted and many thanks!
