Have you tried your code in another IDE? SoloLearn's IDE doesn't support multiple inputs during a program. All inputs must be entered at the beginning. That may be the cause of your problem.

The code you shared had more lines of uncommented text than actual code.

Let's start from the beginning: Do any error messages appear? If not, how do you know something's wrong?
