review of user input and intro to while loops

while_input.py

# Let's get some input from the user.
name = raw_input('Please enter your name: ')
# How can we do something with the value that was entered?
# In other words, how can we display the user's name???

# one way, is a print statement with some concatenation (or adding strings and variables nad other characters)
print("Hello " + name + "!")

####

# make a new python file called:

# games_list.py
# What if you wanted to store a list of your favorite games and have other people add to that list with theirs?
# Start with a list containing several names.
games = ['tetris', 'pong', 'red rover']

print("\nHere is a list of my favorite games")

# Ask the user for a game.
new_game = raw_input("Please tell me your favorite game: ")

# Add the new game to our list.
games.append(new_game)

# Show that the game has been added to the list.
print(games)
# This works great, but the program ends before we can have someone else add to the list.

# adding a while loop to have the program continue until something happens

print("\nHere is a list of my favorite games")

games = [
    'tetris',
    'pong',
    'red rover']

print(games)

new_game = ""
while new_game != 'quit':
    new_game = raw_input("So I can add it to our list, please tell me your favorite game: ")
#    games.append(new_game)     # Comment this line, so 'quit' is not added to the list
    print(games)

    if new_game != 'quit':
        games.append(new_game)
