while loops

When the user enters the negative number -1, the program should stop requesting the user to enter a number. The program must then calculate the average of the numbers entered excluding the -1. Any help would be appreciated.

You could use a while loop and a for loop.

This forum is focused on education. It exists to help people learn Python. We don’t exist to solve others’ problems, although that tends to be a happy byproduct of education. You should keep this in mind when writing replies.

It is highly advised that you do not post the full solution, even if the asker is putting in the effort. It is better to use hints with natural language rather than code if at all possible. Only after the author has something complete you may go all out.
