import time start=False while start == False: try: max=int(input("input amount of seconds to wait: ")) start=True except: print("invalid. please input a non decimal number") count=0 print("countdown started!",max,"seconds left") while count < max: time.sleep(1) count+=1 print(max-count,"seconds left") print("countdown done") #youre welcome

@Ahri Fox I really hate it when people use a while loop instead of a for loop. in your example you used count=0 and max=int(input()), then said while count<max: print(max-count) it's much nicer if you would instead of all that just use max=int(input()) for seconds in range(max,-1,-1): print(max) #i didn't implement all of the code, just the necessary part I'm discussing

class Demo { //length to count down in seconds static int time=60; //Delay to count 1 second at a time public static void delay(){ try { Thread.sleep(1000); } catch(InterruptedException ex) { Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); } } //Run Timer public static void run(){ boolean looper=true; while(looper==true){ delay(); time--; System.out.println(time); if(time==0){ break; } } } public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception { run (); } }
