Answer 1

I don't think u can prevent input() from taking a number. What u can do is to make ur code raise an exception when someone enters a number, say:

string = input("Do not enter a number:")

try:
string = int(string)
except ValueError:
print("Good, you didn't enter a number")
else:
print("Why did u enter a number?")

OR
string = input("Do not enter a number:")
if string.isalpha():
print("Good, you didn't enter a number")
else:
print("Why did u enter a number?")
