--description--

The input() function takes a user input and it returns the user input in the form of a string.

Inside your while loop, call the input() function passing the string 'Enter your choice: ' as the argument, and assign the result to a variable named choice.

--hints--

You should declare a variable named choice within your while loop.

js
({ test: () => assert(runPython(`_Node(_code).find_function("main").find_whiles()[0].find_bodies()[0].has_variable("choice")
`)) })

You should assign the result of the input() function, with the string 'Enter your choice: ' as its argument, to your choice variable.

js
({ test: () => assert(runPython(`_Node(_code).find_function("main").find_whiles()[0].find_bodies()[0].find_variable("choice").is_equivalent("choice = input('Enter your choice: ')")
`)) })
