For loop iteration changing when I rerun the Python file

Question

for i in range(1,5):
    print(i)
    a = input("Enter a Number")

If I don't Enter anything into the Input and Rerun the File again In VSCODE Terminal, The For loop iteration is advancing.

However I was expecting it to reset back to its initial value of 1. Why is this happening and How do I fix It ?

It might be that you're still running the program on accident. Try clicking the play button in the top right corner and selecting "Run Python File" from the drop down menu. If you want to use the terminal, press ctrl + C to ensure the program stops running, then run your program from the terminal.

But Shouldn't it Automatically stop running and rerun when I press "Run Python File". Also When I press ctrl + C it throws a traceback "KeyboardInterrupt". – Shivansh Arora Jun 19 '23 at 07:19
When it throws back the keyboard interrupt does it show the line where the code got interrupted? – Omace Jun 21 '23 at 08:05
Yup. Here's the error: line 3, in a = input("Enter a Number") KeyboardInterrupt – Shivansh Arora Jun 21 '23 at 20:35
That means your program is definitely still running – Omace Jun 21 '23 at 22:15
