>From the program::
answer = raw_input("What is the password? ")
while password != answer:
print "The password is incorrect."
If the user submits a wrong password, the while-loop will be entered.
The program prints "The password is incorrect." then tests whether the
password is still not equal to the answer, prints "The password is
incorrect." again, etcetera. I think you intended to make it so that
the program kept asking for passwords until the right one was given.
This is done with:
answer = raw_input("What is the password? ")
while password != answer:
print "The password is incorrect."
answer = raw_input("What is the password? ")
Apart from this, I would like to ask you and anyone else who submits a question:
Do NOT just say there's something wrong with your code, say WHAT is
going wrong. That is, say "if I run this program (with this-and-that
input if that's important), I would expect to get such-and-such, but I
get so-and-so instead."
