Python Branch and loop final project

HI,

I am having a problem with my while statement it is not printing out the number of remaking tickets. Also I my while statement printing out the number of remaining tickets. One other small issue, the Y/N confirmation code will only print in uppercase. It will not work if .lower is attached to it. I found out it is an indentation error, where do I indent my code?

please see attached screenshot.

thanks

Lines that are not inside of a class, function, method, conditional, or loop should not be indented. So your first few lines (up to and including the "while") should all be against the left edge. Also, while Python allows indentation with spaces or tabs, only one style should be used in any particular file.

Then, to invoke the "lower" method, you must put parentheses after the name. And for any string to match with something that has been lowered, it must be lower case itself:

         if confirm == "Y":          # original code
         if confirm.lower() == "y":  # case-insensitive version
