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',''}

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。

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

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()

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'
