user input and while loops most programs are written to solve an end user' problem to do soyou usually need to get some information from the user for simple examplelet' say someone wants to find out whether they're old enough to vote if you write program to answer this questionyou need to know the user' age before you can provide an answer the program will need to ask the user to enteror inputtheir ageonce the program has this inputit can compare it to the voting age to determine if the user is old enough and then report the result in this you'll learn how to accept user input so your program can then work with it when your program needs nameyou'll be able to prompt the user for name when your program needs list of namesyou'll be able to prompt the user for series of names to do thisyou'll use the input(function you'll also learn how to keep programs running as long as users want them toso they can enter as much information as they need tothenyour program can work with that information you'll use python' while loop to keep programs running as long as certain conditions remain true
