The normal way of saying you want to exit the whole program is with sys.exit() https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/sys.html#sys.exit
You can optionally give it the return code/exit status you want the interpreter to give to the OS when it exits. -----Original Message----- From: Python-list [mailto:python-list-bounces+david.raymond=tomtom....@python.org] On Behalf Of Tamara Berger Sent: Friday, April 19, 2019 10:38 AM To: python-list@python.org Subject: Hi Python-List, What code can I use to break out of a program completely, and not just out of a loop? I wrote code with 3 conditions for saving for a downpayment. The first addresses cases that don't meet the minimum condition; i.e., enough money to save for a downpayment within the allotted time. It has its own print line, but also executes the irrelevant print lines for the other two conditions.
