Stuck on door the math

Question

Trying to figure out how to loop through user input, add it all up, and then also break when the user says “stop”

I tried a single variable and got a type error (which is expected). I tried a second variable and no longer get the error but instead the output doesn’t add up correctly.

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

Any advice?

Answer 1

This question has been common lately, so please refer to the attached code.

Substitute "stop" for "exit"

Answer 2

Ahhh that makes sense. In the challenge they provide the while loop and tell you to drop your code below it. Didnt occur to me to change the loop. Thanks!

Answer 3

I haven't seen the challenge.
If it is specific to using break, then I could alter the code to show how to use the break function.

Would you like to try yourself first?

Answer 4

Yeah I’ll give it a go.
