I am trying to do a simple test but am not sure how to get around ASCII
conversion of characters. I want to pass in y have the function test to see
if y is an integer and print out a value if that integer satisfies the if
statement. However, if I pass in a string, it's converted to ASCII and will
still satisfy the if statement and print out value. How do I ensure that a
string is caught as a ValueError instead of being converted?
def TestY(y):
try:
y = int(y)
except ValueError:
pass
if y < -1 or y > 1:
value = 82
print value
else:
pass
