How can i ask for a valid input if the user does a wrong input?
Value= input('what do you prefer 'a' or 'b'? : ') I am trying to ask an user to input 'a' or 'b', but how can repeat the input question if he does a wrong input like 'c' , 'd', 1 or 2 etc whatever... To elaborate: If i run the code, >>> What do you prefer 'a' or 'b'?: c #if I don't raise an exception here the value becomes "value='c'". Which i don't want..instead i want to ask the user to again input the correct value like, >>>The value was incorrect enter again? :

I tried this:
While True:
value= input().upper()
If value!='a' and value!='b':
Continue
else:
Break
Print(value) #just to check
And its asking me to enter value even after i enter 'a' or 'b'
What's the problem mahnnn..

You need used 'and' instead 'or'

If an exception pops up, then you need to use 'try' and 'except' if there are no exceptions, you can create a condition 'if', 'elif' and 'else'

You could try a "while True" loop and check input. if input is ok, you leave while loop with break and go on with the program.
while True:
inp = input('please select "a" or "b"')
if inp in 'ab':
break
print('invalid input - try again')
print(f'input was {inp}')
