Hi , i would like to ask , if i would like to add a limit to how many times a user can input password, how

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
