using 'while loop' output going into infinite loop... - amitkb - Oct-05-2020
I am learning while loop. Below code is going into infinite loop when displaying the output. Please help.
prompt = input("Please share your age. I will tell you the price: ")
age = int(prompt)
while age == int(prompt):
if age < 3:
print("You are free to go!")
elif age <=12:
print("You have to pay $10.")
else:
print("You have to pay $15.")

Did you mean to use "if" instead of "while"?

Actually, you're comparing something that's equal to itself. You can just remove the loop.
