You can send a signal (check the signal module in the docs), but you can also just do what you wanted: x = [] y = [] while True: msg = 'input x and y values : ' uin = raw_input(msg).strip() if not uin: print 'you have not entered x or y, quiting' break else: xt, yt = uin.split(' ', 1) x.append(float(xt)) y.append(float(yt)) for i in range(len(x)): print x[i] Regards, Jordan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
