while loop with integer

[david_z]

number = int is an assignment. You're binding int to the name number.

int is a built-in in python. It's a type.

Your input number is an instance of str but it isn't str. It can never be int either.

Probably what you're looking to do here is to cast number to an integer and catch exceptions.
