How to print some inputs from user in python? [duplicate]

Question

I am learning python. I tried to the following code but it did not work. How can I print inputs from a user repeatedly in python?

while ( value = input() ):
    print(value)

Thank you very much.

= is an assignment operator which can't be used in while loop, it needs a boolean condition — ksai

python is not a C language to assign values to variables in condition — bigbounty

Assignments within loops don't fly in python. Unlike other languages like C/Java, the assignment (=) is not an operator with a return value.

You will need something along the lines of:

while True:
    value = input()
    print(value)

while true is an infinite loop, therefore it will always take an input and print the output. value stores the value of a user input, and print prints that value after. This will always repeat.

while True:
    value = input()
    print(value)

Use this code

while 1:
    print(input())

If you want to stop taking inputs, use a break with or without condition.
