Lenoname Raise exception only when input is not alpha try: a = input() b = a.isalpha() if not b: raise Exception except Exception: print("wrong") You can also do this if you don't want numeric values try: a = input() print (int(a)) except Exception: print("Enter only string")

You need an if for isalpha, so something like this: try: a = input() b = a.isalpha() if not b: raise Exception except Exception: print("wrong") But you really don't need the try except for this.

The value of b will be TRUE or FALSE. But it will not be an exception.

You need something like this: a = input() b = a.isalpha() if b: print('Good') else: print('Wrong input')
