Why am I getting no output?

sum = 0 x = int(input()) while True: sum+=x if x == "stop": break print(x)

x is an integer, it will never equal "stop". Therefore the loop will run infinitely and nothing is printed

I think you want to take multiple inputs, right? * put x = input() inside the loop * first check if x == stop (if so, break) * if not, you can do x = int(x) and add to sum

Sorry but now I have another problem. If I don't change the input to an integer, I can't add the numbers? Can I? I get an error for line 4.
