While syntax error

Question

I keep getting a syntax error on the while line in the code below. I can't work out what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated!

odd_numbers = 0
even_numbers = 0
number=int(input("Enter a number or type 0 to end: ")

while number !=0:
if number %2==1:
odd_numbers+=1
else:
even_numbers+=1
print ("Odd numbers: ", odd_numbers)
print ("Even numbers:", even_numbers)

Answer 1

There are 2 issues:
(1) line 3 is a missing closing parenthesis at the end of the line
(2) while loop leads to an infinite loop.

Answer 2

If you include the input() function inside the loop, you can get rid of the issue (2).

Here is the code:

odd_numbers = 0
even_numbers = 0

number = 1
while number !=0:
number=int(input("Enter a number or type 0 to end: "))
if number %2==1:
odd_numbers+=1
else:
even_numbers+=1

print ("Odd numbers: ", odd_numbers)
print ("Even numbers:", even_numbers)
