title: Python: How to create a variable that saves locally and persists between runs
body: <p>I want to make a password system in a program I made, but want to make it so that the first time it's run on a new computer it asks for a password but on subsequent runs it doesn't. Is there anyway to create a Boolean variable that persists between runs so that it can detect if the password was input the first time preventing future inputs of the password</p>
