Hi , i would like to ask , if i would like to add a limit to how many times a user can input password, how
should i do it ?
Many thanks in advance
set a counter before entering loop
within loop:
increment counter on each iteration
break (with message) after limit reached.
The easiest way I know is to add a count to each time through the loop:
attempts = 0
while True:
attempts += 1
if attempts < 5:
#check password
else:
break
Another option is a for loop instead of a while loop.
for _ in range(5): # Will loop exactly 5 times
answer1 = input("Password: ")
if answer1 != "123":
print("Wrong Password")
continue
else:
print("Welcome!")
break
