[Tutor] Exeption errors

[Kevin]

I just changed the code to look like this and it works good. Is there a simpler way to do this?

def one():
    x=raw_input("Enter a number: ")
    try:
        while int(x) != 1:
            print "Thats not 1"
            x=raw_input("Enter a number: ")
    except ValueError:
            print "that is not a number"
            one()
    else:
            print "Thats the number 1!!"

one()

  I am playing around with Exeption Errors this is the code I did:
  x=raw_input("Enter a number: ")
  try:
      while int(x) != 1:
          print "Thats not 1"
          x=raw_input("Enter a number: ")
  except ValueError:
          print "that is not a number"

  it works to a point when I type in a number that is not a one it will keep saying Thats not 1, but when I put in a letter it will say that is not a number and then exit the program. How do I make it look again?

  Thanks
  Kevin
