我修改了fmark的答案，用python 2/3兼容更pythonic。

如果您对更多错误处理感兴趣，请参阅ipython的实用程序模块

# PY2/3 compatibility
from __future__ import print_function
# You could use the six package for this
try:
    input_ = raw_input
except NameError:
    input_ = input

def query_yes_no(question, default=True):
    """Ask a yes/no question via standard input and return the answer.

    If invalid input is given, the user will be asked until
    they acutally give valid input.

    Args:
        question(str):
            A question that is presented to the user.
        default(bool|None):
            The default value when enter is pressed with no value.
            When None, there is no default value and the query
            will loop.
    Returns:
        A bool indicating whether user has entered yes or no.

    Side Effects:
        Blocks program execution until valid input(y/n) is given.
    """
    yes_list = ["yes", "y"]
    no_list = ["no", "n"]

    default_dict = {  # default => prompt default string
        None: "[y/n]",
        True: "[Y/n]",
        False: "[y/N]",
    }

    default_str = default_dict[default]
    prompt_str = "%s %s " % (question, default_str)

    while True:
        choice = input_(prompt_str).lower()

        if not choice and default is not None:
            return default
        if choice in yes_list:
            return True
        if choice in no_list:
            return False

        notification_str = "Please respond with 'y' or 'n'"
        print(notification_str)

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

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

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()

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')

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()
