This code loop will only stop if the string cannot be converted to float

   while True:
        x = input('Enter a number: ')
        if x != '':
            try:
                float(x)
            except:
                break

Try:

x=[]
x.append(input("please insert a number... "))

while((x[len(x)-1].isnumeric()) or (len(x[len(x)-1])==0)):
    x.append(input("please insert a number... "))
del x[-1]
print(x)
