The above made it worse

Expected behaviour

the function takes the input from the question variable and converts it into an integer.
then returns it

Actual behaviour

Program gets to line with input call and freezes

Steps to reproduce:

[NOTE: Self-contained, minimal reproducing code samples are extremely helpful and will expedite addressing your issue]

1. Run the following code

# clear(False) -> Clears the terminal using the clear and cls for everything but windows and windows respectively. 
# proven to work  without issue

def getIntegerInput(question:str) -> int:
    while True:
        try:
            clear(False)

            tmp = int(input(question))
            if tmp == "":
                return 0
            return tmp
        except ValueError:
            print("Sorry, but that is not a number. please use the digits (0 - 9)")
            continue
print(getIntegerInput("Give me a number: "))

Logs

Output for Python in the Output panel (View→Output, change the drop-down the upper-right of the Output panel to Python)

N/A, there is nothing there. it freezes.
however, when I force quit the process it says

timeout after 1000ms
