'''
    Purpose: loop until we get enough inputs that add to at least 100
'''

# we don't know how many inputs it's going to take until we have a total of 100
# so we use a while loop

# start with a total of 0
total = 0
# keep repeating while our total is less than 100
# a looking variable is only used when we don't know what condition to look for
# here, our testing condition is whether total is less than 100, so we don't need a looking variable
while ( total < 100 ):  # if the total is less than 100, then we keep asking; otherwise, >= 100 --> stop asking
    # get another number
    reply = input( 'Enter number: ' )
    new_number = int( reply )

    # accumulate the total
    total = total + new_number
    print( 'total so far:', total )

    # the while loop then checks the condition to see if it's True
    # if the new total is still < 100, then we keep asking for a new number
    # if the new total is >= 100, then we can stop asking, exit the while loop
