How to write a program that would keep taking inputs from the user until the sum of all the inputs reach 200,

Question

The numbers permissible for the user input are: 10, 20 and 50. If any other number is entered, then the program should declare it as invalid. I've tried the following but it doesn't seem to work out:

count = 0
total = 0
print("Enter the values of amounts collected")
while True:
new_number = input('> ')
count = count + 1
total = total + int(new_number)
if total==200 :
print("You have successfully collected 200")
break
if total>200:
print("Amount collected exceeds 200")
break
Sample input:

> 10
> 50
> 50
> 50
> 10
> 20
> 10
Sample output:

You have successfully collected 200
Sample input:

> 190
...
Sample output:

Invalid input
Sample input:

> 50
> 50
> 50
> 20
> 50
Sample output:

Amount collected exceeds 200

Use a while loop and exit when the sum >= 200

Why you are passing '> ' in input function. No need to do that. Just do this

new_number = input()

To handle invalid input just use try except block
