The goal is to keep adding integers less than 0 until positive number or number equal to 0 terminates the loop

[rigid oriole]

what's the issue

[frosty crow]

Hey this is my current code

result = 0
user_number = int(input())

while user_number <= 0:
    user_number += 0
    print(user_number, end=' ')
    user_number= int(input())

print(result)```

[rigid oriole]

right, so you never change the variable result

[frosty crow]

Wdym?

[rigid oriole]

result is set to 0 at the start of the code, then printed as 0 at the end, that's all that happens to it

[frosty crow]

oh I see

so i need result to equal last integer read right?

to add to new integer read

[rigid oriole]

you need to be adding the new integers to the result

[frosty crow]

what would that look like

a little confused

[frosty crow]

would I be adding after new integer?

[rigid oriole]

user_number += 0 this doesn't do anything right now, try rewriting this such that the input is added to result

[frosty crow]

result= user_number + result```

[frosty crow]

like that?

^

[rigid oriole]

try running it

[frosty crow]

!e ```py
result = 0
user_number = int(input())

while user_number <= 0:
result= user_number + result
print(user_number, end=' ')
user_number= int(input())

print(result)```

@frosty crow :x: Your 3.12 eval job has completed with return code 1.

:warning: Note: input is not supported by the bot :warning:

001 | Traceback (most recent call last):
002 |   File "/home/main.py", line 2, in <module>
003 |     user_number = int(input())
004 |                       ^^^^^^^
005 | EOFError: EOF when reading a line

[frosty crow]

This what I got^

[rigid oriole]

so what is the problem in test case 1?

[somber valley]

print(user_number, end=' ')

remove this

[frosty crow]

Oh I see, it worked

Thanks
