Idk why this error is happening?

My code is like this: >>> i=0 >>> while 1==1: print(i) i=i+1 if i>=5: print("breaking") break Then I press enter then left arrow key and write the remaining last line: print("Finished") Then an error occurs saying : "invalid syntax". I thought it'd happening because I pressed left arrow key before writing the last line, so I wrote it again like this: >>> i=0 >>> while 1==1: print(i) i=i+1 if i>=5: print("breaking") break print("Finished") Then the output came like: 0 finish 1 finish 2 finish 3 finish 4 Breaking But the desired output be like: 0 1 2 3 4 Breaking Finished Please help me understand this.

It's because print('Finished') is in while loop, which will be occur over and over again. You have to put it outside of while loop

Also a tip for you. You can use i<=5 in while expression instead of using 1==1. It will simplify your code and become more readable.

But when I wrote it outside the loop it said 'invalid syntax'
