How do i make it so that code repeats or restarts from the beginning?
@Speep If you would like code to infinitely repeat, over and over, try this:
while True:
# Put any code to repeat infinitely here
Otherwise, I’m not 100% sure what you mean. If this doesn’t answer your question, could you elaborate?

ye mb i meant something that allows the code to run but after its done, repeats it instead of running the code in the next lines.
lets say i want a book to read and i asked by the code what type of book i want, i find a book, but then i want the code to ask what type of book i want again. (man i shouldve stayed on scratch huh?)
@Speep To do that, the code would be as follows:
while True:
book = input("What book do you want to read?")
print(book + " is a very good book!"
This will ask the user what book they want to read and print book + " is a very good book" infinitely and it will never stop.
Alr fine ima show you ma code (im new so idk what if im doing is correct)(the … is placeholder)
ServerType = input ("What type of MC server do you want to see? ")
if ServerType == "Survival":
print ("=== Survival Servers ===")
print ("AsianF4rmer, ArchMC, Legend SMP")
SurvLink = input ("Which Server do you want the link to? (type name as shown) ")
if SurvLink == "AsianF4rmer": ...
if SurvLink == "ArchMC": ...
if SurvLink == "LegendSMP": ...
kill = input ("Is that all? (answer Y or N) ")
if kill == "Y":
quit()
else:
if ServerType == "PvP":
print ("=== PvP Servers ===")
print ("Zentic, MercuryMC")
PvPLink = input ("What Server do you want the link to? ")
if PvPLink == "Zentic": ...
if PvPLink == "MercuryMC": ...
how do you make it start from beginning after it ends/quits?
@Speep If you’d like that to loop infinitely, just wrap it in a while True:, like this:
while True:
ServerType = input ("What type of MC server do you want to see? ")
if ServerType == "Survival":
print ("=== Survival Servers ===")
print ("AsianF4rmer, ArchMC, Legend SMP")
SurvLink = input ("Which Server do you want the link to? (type name as shown) ")
if SurvLink == "AsianF4rmer": ...
if SurvLink == "ArchMC": ...
if SurvLink == "LegendSMP": ...
kill = input ("Is that all? (answer Y or N) ")
if kill == "Y":
break()
else:
if ServerType == "PvP":
print ("=== PvP Servers ===")
print ("Zentic, MercuryMC")
PvPLink = input ("What Server do you want the link to? ")
if PvPLink == "Zentic": ...
if PvPLink == "MercuryMC": ...
Or, you can make it loop until a certain condition is not met, like this:
while not(var == "something"):
ServerType = input ("What type of MC server do you want to see? ")
if ServerType == "Survival":
print ("=== Survival Servers ===")
print ("AsianF4rmer, ArchMC, Legend SMP")
SurvLink = input ("Which Server do you want the link to? (type name as shown) ")
if SurvLink == "AsianF4rmer": ...
if SurvLink == "ArchMC": ...
if SurvLink == "LegendSMP": ...
kill = input ("Is that all? (answer Y or N) ")
if kill == "Y":
break()
else:
if ServerType == "PvP":
print ("=== PvP Servers ===")
print ("Zentic, MercuryMC")
PvPLink = input ("What Server do you want the link to? ")
if PvPLink == "Zentic": ...
if PvPLink == "MercuryMC": ...
while not doesnt work according to something called “ruffle”?
btw while true just repeats the first question regardless of the input 
This is not true. I use it quite often.
What specifically would you like to change?
i think that while not(var == "something"):will work but idk what to insert into var and something … (average scratcher moment)
why not just
while var != "something":
...
But what would i insert in var+something???
(brain fried rn) 
@Speep var is the name of any variable (var is just a placeholder) and "something" is the value of the variable.
basically you don’t need var at all and just use while True
@Speep If you wanted to make your code repeat, while True is the code you need. If you want your code to repeat until a coindtion is not met, put something in place of “True”.
