1,121 Pointswhile True: infinite loop breaks prematurely
I am trying to get numbers from input, print them out, and return the numbers. I am having issues, however, getting the input to 'keep getting asked' while the loop is running. Why is this exiting early, or running but not getting more inputs?
print('Enter some numbers')
def numba():
while True:
entered = input('enter numbers and type done to quit')
if entered == 'done':
break
print(num)
print('Done')
numba()
why isn't this saying: Print some numbesr
input for entering numbers
-> returned number
input for entering numbers
-> returned number
input for entering numbers
->done -> break -> ->print 'Done' ?
