● Create a new file called while.py ● Write a program that always asks the user to enter a number. ● When the user enters the negative number -1, the program should stop requesting the user to enter a number, ● The program must then calculate the average of the numbers entered excluding the -1. ● Make use of the while loop repetition structure to implement the program. ● Compile, save and run your file.

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.
