It is unusual to have such kind of questions here but I will give you an answer, write this in your new file and execute it with python3 while.py

sum = 0
i = 0
while True:
        n = int(input("Input a number "))
        if n == -1:
                break
        sum += n
        i += 1

print("Average is {}".format(sum/i))

To learn about python I highly recommend this book about Python programming It is a collection of all python related tutorials in our community.

Hope this helps
