New to Python here. I've been coding a small chatbot for a while now, and when I prompt the user to enter something instead of answering with the correct response the bot just repeats the prompt. Everything before that works just fine, but it gets stuck in a loop of asking the user for an input.
print("Hello " + User_Name + """.

and variable definition.
(Also remember to speak to the bot in lowercase, without punctuation.)""")
while 1 == 1:
str1 = input("Say something: ")
#"hello" //////////////////////////////////////////
if "hello" in str1:
print("Hi " + User_Name + "! (I read this as the 'hello' greeting.");
#"hi" //////////////////////////////////////////
if "hi" in str1:
print("Hi " + User_Name + "! (I read this as the 'hi' greeting.");
#"how are you?" //////////////////////////////////////////
if "how are you" in str1:
print("good, how about you? (I read this as you asking 'how are you'.)")
mood = input("Enter Mood: ")
if "good" in mood:
print("Nice to hear " + User_Name + "! (I read this as you being in a good mood.)");
if "bad" in mood:
print("I hope you feel better soon, " + User_Name + "! (I read this as you being in a bad mood.)");
#"name length" //////////////////////////////////////////
if "name length" in str1:
print( "Your name is " + len(User_Name) + "letters long. (I read this as you asking how long your name is.");```
Your while loop does not have an exit condition. It will repeat forever since 1
is always equal to 1.
Instead, you could do while (str1 != "quit") which would stop the while loop once the user enters "quit" in the prompt.
Also, side note, you should not be using semicolons at the end of lines in Python.
