How to fix "the break code" problem in python?

Question

I try to learn Python. The code can be written super easily but doesn't work. And when I write "break", it doesn't show up in the suggestions of PyCharm. I watch videos on Youtube and I did the same things that I watched. The same code works on the video, but in mine computer it doesn't work. What is the problem and how can I fix this?

s_Number=9
guess_count=0
guess_limit=3
while guess_count<guess_limit:
    number = input("Guess a number: ")
     guess_count+=1
  if number==s_Number:

      print("Well done!")
   break

`input` returns a `str`. Instead, try `if int(number) == s_Number` — Chrispresso, Apr 12 '20 at 14:36
The `break` needs to be indented appropriately, i.e. same number of spaces/tabs your `print` statement is — Chrispresso, Apr 12 '20 at 14:38

SyntaxError: 'break' outside loop is caused due to your wrong indentation.

s_Number=9
guess_count=0
guess_limit=3
while guess_count<guess_limit:
     number = input("Guess a number: ")
     guess_count+=1
     if number==s_Number:
         print("Well done!")
     break

You can also place your break statement inside your if depending upon your intent.

The `break` needs to be inside the `if` statement, otherwise the while loop is useless. – Chrispresso Apr 12 '20 at 14:40
Python has different syntax rules than others. I still can not get used to it. Thanks again – E.Şevik Apr 12 '20 at 14:41
