Answer 5

sunu0000, your program is failing at the while loop condition, it says "while n:" and that will always be True (cause every number other than zero is considered as True for a boolean expression), think about a good condition to control the loop.

P.S: I don't speak english, sorry if there's something wrong.

Answer 6

Well the while is there just for the sake of it..I don't want it to interfere with the breaking mechanism...So I have put the condition to While n...The loop's control is actually controlled by the boolean order and the break statements

and yes ..i like the method you use for the input..

And for the English speaking thing..I am no English..and u speak english just fine

Answer 7

You're right sunu0000, it was my fault, I didn't see that part of your code.
I hope my code helps you, and if you have some questions, don't hesitate to ask for help, I think that's why we all are in this study group anyway.

It's great to know we all are from different parts of the world =)

Answer 8

hey sunu0000 , i'm not able to understand the 34th line of your code, can you explain it?

Answer 9

It just checks that the last 6 members of the tuple N are consecutive integers or not..
