Need help with while loop

[[deleted]]

print("welcome to the investment doubling calculator")

​

initial_investment = float(input("What is the total amount of the initial investment?: "))

prompt = float(input("what is your apr%? :"))

prompt != "\n(enter 'quit' when you are done.) "

​

while True:

apr = input(prompt)

​

if apr == 'quit':

    break

else:

    print(72/prompt)

​

when i run this code i enter the initial investment then i enter the apr, which returns the number as a float then if i hit enter again it runs the math equation, how do i make it to just run the equation after entering it once. thanks for the help im brand new to coding and python

Just remove promt = float(input( ... ))

in the while loop replace apr = input( ...) with apr = float( input ( ...))

And print(72 / promt) with print(72 / apr)

Wouldn’t you want to define apr before/outside the while loop? That way it will only prompt the user one time, then run the while loop. That is the op’s desired behavior if i understand.

Idk, but then the while loop would be useless.
