Please look at this code, I need this code to print" Please enter a death_rate that is less than the birthrate" when the user enters a death_rate that is lower than birth rate. At present, the program is left hanging if this scenario happens (there is an *). Attached is the picture.

And the python code that is still erroneous is:

 

# Define a function to calculate the number of years needed to reach the target population.
def calculate_years(starting_population, birthrate, death_rate, target_population):
   # Initialize current_population and years to keep track of the population and years passed.
   current_population = starting_population
   years = 0

   # Use a while loop to simulate population growth until the target is reached.
   while current_population < target_population:
       # Calculate the new population after one year, taking into account birth and death rates.
       current_population += (birthrate - death_rate) * current_population
       # Increment the year count.
       years += 1

   # Return the number of years needed to reach the target population.
   return years

# Input values from the user.
starting_population = int(input("Enter the starting population: "))
birthrate = float(input("Enter the annual birthrate (as a decimal): "))
death_rate = float(input("Enter the annual death rate (as a decimal): "))
target_population = int(input("Enter the target population: "))

# Call the calculate_years function to get the result.
years_needed = calculate_years(starting_population, birthrate, death_rate, target_population)

# Display the result to the user.
print(f"It will take {years_needed} years to reach a population of {target_population}.")

In [*]: # Define a function to calculate the number of years needed to reach the target population. def calculate_years (starting_population, birthrate, death_rate, target_population): # Initialize current_population and years to keep track of the population and years passed. current_population = starting population years = 0 # Use a while loop to simulate population growth until the target is reached. while current_population < target_population: # Calculate the new population after one year, taking into account birth and death rates. current_population += (birthrate death_rate) * current_population # Increment the year count. years += 1 - # Return the number of years needed to reach the target population. return years # Input values from the user. starting population = int(input("Enter the starting population: ")) birthrate = float(input ("Enter the annual birthrate (as a decimal): ")) death_rate= float(input("Enter the annual death rate (as a decimal): ")) target_population = int(input("Enter the target population: ")) # Call the calculate years function to get the result. years_needed = calculate_years (starting_population, birthrate, death_rate, target_population) # Display the result to the user. print (f"It will take {years_needed} years to reach a population of {target_population}.") Enter the starting population: 1000 Enter the annual birthrate (as a decimal): .1 Enter the annual death rate (as a decimal): .3 Enter the target population: 5000
