easy user input (Python)

2013-09-13T06:34:08-07:00

Python recipe 578552 by yota (input, python3, query, user). Revision 7.

Improvement over Recipe 577058 and cie.

easy_input() function extends the built-in input() function. A question is prompted as well as some expected answers.

The user input can be incomplete (ie. y or ye instead of yes)

If no list of expected answer is provided, default will be "yes/no".
If no default answer is provided, default will be the first expected answer.

Try and see.

Disclaimer: written in python3, meant for *nix shell, indented with tabs

Avoided caveat: If some expected answer have the same beginning, the user can not enter too few letters. Ex: answer = ['continue', 'test', 'testicle'], user can not input t, te or tes because it will be ambiguous. User can however input test, which is not.
