#Program to print fibonacci until a range.
print "Fibonacci Series"
print "Enter a range"
range = raw_input()
first=1
second =1
print first
print ", "
print second
print ", "
third = 0
while(third < range):
third=first+second
print third
print ", "
first = second
second = third
#End of program
Here, the program asks user for a range and prints the series upto the range. But, m getting the series of infinite loop. Can anyone help me?
range = raw_input() sets range to be a string, e.g. it is assigning range = '5' rather than range = 5.
The comparison third < range will therefore always be True in Python 2.x *, as integers always compare less than strings:
>>> 10 < '5'
True
The minimal fix is to convert the input to an integer:
range = int(raw_input())
However, note that range is a built-in function, so you should pick a different name for that variable.
* Note that in 3.x comparing a string with an integer causes an error:
>>> 10 < '5'
Traceback (most recent call last):

10 < '5'
TypeError: unorderable types: int() < str()
