@EduardoMorales: really? It works for me (tested in Python 2.7 and 3.4 ** by replacing `raw_input` with `input`) – Hugh Bothwell Mar 01 '15 at 00:20

number = raw_input("Number: ")

if not number.isdigit():
    print "NO!"
else:
    print "YES!"

`int("-1234") == -1234` but `"-1234".isdigit() == False` – Hugh Bothwell Mar 01 '15 at 00:37
Point taken. Try would as you created the only solution. – Katpoes Mar 01 '15 at 00:50
