how to make an input only change a value if it is big enough python code example

Example 1: python check if input() gives error

try:
    # Note: Python 2.x users should use raw_input, the equivalent of 3.x's input
    age = int(input("Please enter your age: "))
except ValueError:
    print("Sorry, I didn't understand that.")
else:
	if age >= 18: 
    	print("You are able to vote in the United States!")
	else:
    	print("You are not able to vote in the United States.")

Example 2: python double check if wants to execute funtion

age = sanitised_input("Enter your age: ", int, 1, 101)
answer = sanitised_input("Enter your answer: ", str.lower, range_=('a', 'b', 'c', 'd'))
