[split] Password Generator - Fusion777 - Apr-23-2018
So, I've been trying to write this code that would tell me to stop once I entered the wrong password three times in a row and I don't know how to do it. Disclaimer, I'm very new to Python 3. I wrote the python code below for password input but it doesn't prompt me to stop after three attempts. What should I add to this code? or what should I delete so I can achieve what I wanted it to do. Just need some boost and help so I can clear my mind. (^^o) Can't seem to sleep at night when you don't get what you want to happen with your code. A bit of help is appreciated! Thanks!
password = str(input("Please enter password to continue: "))
if password == "fusion":
print("Welcome! the password is correct, you may enter.")
exit()
while password != "fusion":
print("what is the Password?")
password = input()
while password == "fusion":
print("Welcome! the password is correct, you may enter.")
exit()Thank you,Josh

Hi,
I'm a newbie too!. I've done something with my knowledge, please check whether it suits for you.
password=str(input("Enter the password:"))
if password=='fusion':
print ("Welcome!the password is correct, you may enter.")
exit()
while password!='fusion':
i=0
while i<3:
password=str(input("You have entered invalid password, please enter teh password again:"))
if password=='fusion':
print ("Welcome!the password is correct, you may enter.")
exit()
i+=1
print ("You have reached the maximum limit")
break

I know how to do this is Python 2. I'm pretty much a beginner as well. I'd do it like this:
password=raw_input("Enter the password: ")
times_wrong=0
while times_wrong<3:
if password=="fusion":
print "Welcome! The password is correct, you may enter."
break
else:
print "What is the password?"
times_wrong+=1
As I said before, I only know how to work Python 2. I suppose you'll be able to work out the syntax differences and stuff.
