[SOLVED] I'm learning while loop, and can someone tell me why the "break" statement isn't stoping the loop here?

Question

Answer 1

Line 8:
Use if instead of while

x = 1

while x>=1:
print(x)
x = x + 1
if x == 5:
print("breaking")
break

Answer 2

It's a inner loop break. So it will only break the inner loop not outer loop.

You have to use if statement as Vadivelan said.

Answer 3

Vadivelan thanks, I tried if a bit but got some errors so I thought I wasn't doing it wrong but it's doesn't work that way
