Is there any way to end an infinite while loop?

Question

Code:

while 1==1:
print("Never going to stop!")

This program will never end. I am looking forward to your ideas about to stop it by adding timer or some other way? Is that possible?

Answer 1

Yep, there is a way. Decide what your stopping point is, and then use a break statement! That will snap you out of the while and on to whatever cafe is next.

Answer 2

Hmm, for that you might need to look up some of the libraries for python. I suspect there is a way to count seconds, but I don't know it offhand.

The easy thing would be to count how many times you pass through the loop, but let's get more energetic.

Look up the "time" library, I bet you can find a way to check if 5 seconds have passed

Answer 3

Here's another way to do it, using an outside timer to reset the condition:

Answer 5

@Jim thanks for the wonderful idea. Let's say, I want it to be stopped after 5 seconds. How to code that operation? Don't mind of my silly questions, I am a very new code learner and learning like ABCD.

Thank you very much @Sapphire
