I am trying to get python to check if a certain variable is an int

    numbergames = input("Number of Games to Analyze: ")
valuenumber = True
while valuenumber == True:
    if numbergames == int:
        valuenumber = False
    if numbergames != int:
        numbergames = input("Please type a valid number: ")
print("Thanks")

The code is getting stuck and is not getting out of the loop even thought the number typed is an int.
