正如你提到的，最简单的方法是使用raw_input()(或简单的input()对于Python 3)。没有内置的方法可以做到这一点。配方577058:

import sys


def query_yes_no(question, default="yes"):
    """Ask a yes/no question via raw_input() and return their answer.

    "question" is a string that is presented to the user.
    "default" is the presumed answer if the user just hits <Enter>.
            It must be "yes" (the default), "no" or None (meaning
            an answer is required of the user).

    The "answer" return value is True for "yes" or False for "no".
    """
    valid = {"yes": True, "y": True, "ye": True, "no": False, "n": False}
    if default is None:
        prompt = " [y/n] "
    elif default == "yes":
        prompt = " [Y/n] "
    elif default == "no":
        prompt = " [y/N] "
    else:
        raise ValueError("invalid default answer: '%s'" % default)

    while True:
        sys.stdout.write(question + prompt)
        choice = input().lower()
        if default is not None and choice == "":
            return valid[default]
        elif choice in valid:
            return valid[choice]
        else:
            sys.stdout.write("Please respond with 'yes' or 'no' " "(or 'y' or 'n').\n")

(对于Python 2，使用raw_input而不是input。) 使用的例子:

>>> query_yes_no("Is cabbage yummier than cauliflower?")
Is cabbage yummier than cauliflower? [Y/n] oops
Please respond with 'yes' or 'no' (or 'y' or 'n').
Is cabbage yummier than cauliflower? [Y/n] [ENTER]
>>> True

>>> query_yes_no("Is cabbage yummier than cauliflower?", None)
Is cabbage yummier than cauliflower? [y/n] [ENTER]
Please respond with 'yes' or 'no' (or 'y' or 'n').
Is cabbage yummier than cauliflower? [y/n] y
>>> True

我会这样做:

# raw_input returns the empty string for "enter"
yes = {'yes','y', 'ye', ''}
no = {'no','n'}

choice = raw_input().lower()
if choice in yes:
   return True
elif choice in no:
   return False
else:
   sys.stdout.write("Please respond with 'yes' or 'no'")

一个非常简单(但不是很复杂)的方法是:

msg = 'Shall I?'
shall = input("%s (y/N) " % msg).lower() == 'y'

你也可以写一个简单的(稍微改进的)函数:

def yn_choice(message, default='y'):
    choices = 'Y/n' if default.lower() in ('y', 'yes') else 'y/N'
    choice = input("%s (%s) " % (message, choices))
    values = ('y', 'yes', '') if choices == 'Y/n' else ('y', 'yes')
    return choice.strip().lower() in values

注意:在Python 2上，使用raw_input而不是input。

在Python的标准库中有一个函数strtoool: http://docs.python.org/2/distutils/apiref.html?highlight=distutils.util#distutils.util.strtobool

您可以使用它来检查用户的输入并将其转换为True或False值。

这个怎么样:

def yes(prompt = 'Please enter Yes/No: '):
while True:
    try:
        i = raw_input(prompt)
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        return False
    if i.lower() in ('yes','y'): return True
    elif i.lower() in ('no','n'): return False

你可以尝试下面的代码来处理变量'accepted'中的选项:

print( 'accepted: {}'.format(accepted) )
# accepted: {'yes': ['', 'Yes', 'yes', 'YES', 'y', 'Y'], 'no': ['No', 'no', 'NO', 'n', 'N']}

这是密码。

#!/usr/bin/python3

def makeChoi(yeh, neh):
    accept = {}
    # for w in words:
    accept['yes'] = [ '', yeh, yeh.lower(), yeh.upper(), yeh.lower()[0], yeh.upper()[0] ]
    accept['no'] = [ neh, neh.lower(), neh.upper(), neh.lower()[0], neh.upper()[0] ]
    return accept

accepted = makeChoi('Yes', 'No')

def doYeh():
    print('Yeh! Let\'s do it.')

def doNeh():
    print('Neh! Let\'s not do it.')

choi = None
while not choi:
    choi = input( 'Please choose: Y/n? ' )
    if choi in accepted['yes']:
        choi = True
        doYeh()
    elif choi in accepted['no']:
        choi = True
        doNeh()
    else:
        print('Your choice was "{}". Please use an accepted input value ..'.format(choi))
        print( accepted )
        choi = None

正如Alexander Artemenko提到的，这里有一个使用strtobool()的简单解决方案。

from distutils.util import strtobool

def user_yes_no_query(question):
    sys.stdout.write('%s [y/n]\n' % question)
    while True:
        try:
            return strtobool(raw_input().lower())
        except ValueError:
            sys.stdout.write('Please respond with \'y\' or \'n\'.\n')

使用

>>> user_yes_no_query('Do you like cheese?')
Do you like cheese? [y/n]
Only on tuesdays
Please respond with 'y' or 'n'.
ok
Please respond with 'y' or 'n'.
y
>>> True

我知道这已经被回答了很多方法，这可能不能回答OP的具体问题(标准列表)，但这是我为最常见的用例所做的，它比其他回答简单得多:

answer = input('Please indicate approval: [y/n]')
if not answer or answer[0].lower() != 'y':
    print('You did not indicate approval')
    exit(1)

这是我所使用的:

import sys

# cs = case sensitive
# ys = whatever you want to be "yes" - string or tuple of strings

#  prompt('promptString') == 1:               # only y
#  prompt('promptString',cs = 0) == 1:        # y or Y
#  prompt('promptString','Yes') == 1:         # only Yes
#  prompt('promptString',('y','yes')) == 1:   # only y or yes
#  prompt('promptString',('Y','Yes')) == 1:   # only Y or Yes
#  prompt('promptString',('y','yes'),0) == 1: # Yes, YES, yes, y, Y etc.

def prompt(ps,ys='y',cs=1):
    sys.stdout.write(ps)
    ii = raw_input()
    if cs == 0:
        ii = ii.lower()
    if type(ys) == tuple:
        for accept in ys:
            if cs == 0:
                accept = accept.lower()
            if ii == accept:
                return True
    else:
        if ii == ys:
            return True
    return False

你也可以使用提词器。

无耻地从README中截取:

#pip install prompter

from prompter import yesno

>>> yesno('Really?')
Really? [Y/n]
True

>>> yesno('Really?')
Really? [Y/n] no
False

>>> yesno('Really?', default='no')
Really? [y/N]
True

def question(question, answers):
    acceptable = False
    while not acceptable:
        print(question + "specify '%s' or '%s'") % answers
        answer = raw_input()
        if answer.lower() == answers[0].lower() or answers[0].lower():
            print('Answer == %s') % answer
            acceptable = True
    return answer

raining = question("Is it raining today?", ("Y", "N"))

换做是我就会这么做。

输出

Is it raining today? Specify 'Y' or 'N'
> Y
answer = 'Y'

我修改了fmark的答案，用python 2/3兼容更pythonic。

        print(notification_str)

这是我对它的看法，我只是想中止如果用户没有确认的行动。

import distutils

if unsafe_case:
    print('Proceed with potentially unsafe thing? [y/n]')
    while True:
        try:
            verify = distutils.util.strtobool(raw_input())
            if not verify:
                raise SystemExit  # Abort on user reject
            break
        except ValueError as err:
            print('Please enter \'yes\' or \'no\'')
            # Try again
    print('Continuing ...')
do_unsafe_thing()

在2.7中，这是不是太非python化了?

if raw_input('your prompt').lower()[0]=='y':
   your code here
else:
   alternate code here

它至少能捕捉到“是”的任何变化。

对python 3执行同样的操作。X, raw_input()不存在:

def ask(question, default = None):
    hasDefault = default is not None
    prompt = (question 
               + " [" + ["y", "Y"][hasDefault and default] + "/" 
               + ["n", "N"][hasDefault and not default] + "] ")

    while True:
        sys.stdout.write(prompt)
        choice = input().strip().lower()
        if choice == '':
            if default is not None:
                return default
        else:
            if "yes".startswith(choice):
                return True
            if "no".startswith(choice):
                return False

        sys.stdout.write("Please respond with 'yes' or 'no' "
                             "(or 'y' or 'n').\n")

您可以使用单击的确认方法。

import click

if click.confirm('Do you want to continue?', default=True):
    print('Do something')

这将打印:

$ Do you want to continue? [Y/n]:

应该适用于Linux, Mac或Windows上的Python 2/3。

文档:http://click.pocoo.org/5/prompts/ # confirmation-prompts

对于Python 3，我使用这个函数:

def user_prompt(question: str) -> bool:
    """ Prompt the yes/no-*question* to the user. """
    from distutils.util import strtobool

    while True:
        user_input = input(question + " [y/n]: ")
        try:
            return bool(strtobool(user_input))
        except ValueError:
            print("Please use y/n or yes/no.\n")

函数的作用是:将字符串转换为bool类型。如果字符串不能被解析，它将引发ValueError。

在Python 3中，raw_input()已重命名为input()。

正如Geoff所说，strtoool实际上返回0或1，因此结果必须转换为bool类型。

这是strtobool的实现，如果你想让特殊的单词被识别为true，你可以复制代码并添加自己的case。

def strtobool (val):
    """Convert a string representation of truth to true (1) or false (0).
    True values are 'y', 'yes', 't', 'true', 'on', and '1'; false values
    are 'n', 'no', 'f', 'false', 'off', and '0'.  Raises ValueError if
    'val' is anything else.
    """
    val = val.lower()
    if val in ('y', 'yes', 't', 'true', 'on', '1'):
        return 1
    elif val in ('n', 'no', 'f', 'false', 'off', '0'):
        return 0
    else:
        raise ValueError("invalid truth value %r" % (val,))

作为一个编程新手，我发现上面的一堆答案过于复杂，特别是如果目标是有一个简单的函数，你可以传递各种是/否问题，迫使用户选择是或否。在浏览了这篇文章和其他几篇文章，并借鉴了各种各样的好想法后，我得出了以下结论:

def yes_no(question_to_be_answered):
    while True:
        choice = input(question_to_be_answered).lower()
        if choice[:1] == 'y': 
            return True
        elif choice[:1] == 'n':
            return False
        else:
            print("Please respond with 'Yes' or 'No'\n")

#See it in Practice below 

musical_taste = yes_no('Do you like Pine Coladas?')
if musical_taste == True:
    print('and getting caught in the rain')
elif musical_taste == False:
    print('You clearly have no taste in music')

Python 3.8及以上版本的一行代码:

while res:= input("When correct, press enter to continue...").lower() not in {'y','yes','Y','YES',''}: pass

Python x.x

res = True
while res:
    res = input("Please confirm with y/yes...").lower(); res = res not in {'y','yes','Y','YES',''}

由于答案是“是”或“否”，在下面的例子中，第一个解决方案是使用while函数重复这个问题，第二个解决方案是使用递归-是定义事物本身的过程。

def yes_or_no(question):
    while "the answer is invalid":
        reply = str(input(question+' (y/n): ')).lower().strip()
        if reply[:1] == 'y':
            return True
        if reply[:1] == 'n':
            return False

yes_or_no("Do you know who Novak Djokovic is?")

第二个解决方案:

def yes_or_no(question):
    """Simple Yes/No Function."""
    prompt = f'{question} ? (y/n): '
    answer = input(prompt).strip().lower()
    if answer not in ['y', 'n']:
        print(f'{answer} is invalid, please try again...')
        return yes_or_no(question)
    if answer == 'y':
        return True
    return False

def main():
    """Run main function."""
    answer = yes_or_no("Do you know who Novak Djokovic is?")
    print(f'you answer was: {answer}')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

我过去常做的是……

question = 'Will the apple fall?'
print(question)
answer = int(input("Pls enter the answer: "
if answer == "y",
print('Well done')
print(answer)
