Answer 1

Incorrect indentation.

ash = 78
wood = 9
lucky = 569

while ash <= 162839:
print(ash)
ash = ash * 3
if ash >= 82929:
break

while wood <= 82919731927:
print(wood)
wood = wood ** 2
if wood >= 71991011:
break

while lucky <= 728173739291193773829177192729:
print(lucky)
lucky = lucky * 81920281728
if lucky > 666666666666662772717819:
break

You need to indent the code you want to run for the if statement..

Answer 2

check your indention...
as c java works with { } we seem to hav a clear idea of which block of code in which loop or if else etc..
but in python it works with indention

if a==b :
do this
else :
if i<j:
do that
