How can i resolve loops issues code in ppython-CodePudding

Hi everyone i'm new here, and i i'm learning python too for my university, i'm stuck on this problem, i have to create a list of week days and put the values ad miles then i have to do the total and count the cost of the petrol but i need to insert loops and tell to the program is the value is less then 0 to go back and insert the value again. This is my problem, if someone can help me i will be happy. thanks.

myDay = day1, day2, day3, day4, day5, day6, day7

day1 = int(input("Enter miles for Monday:"))
day2 = int(input("Enter miles for Tuesday:"))
day3 = int(input("Enter miles for Wednesday:"))
day4 = int(input("Enter miles for Thursday:"))
day5 = int(input("Enter miles for Friday:"))
day6 = int(input("Enter miles for Saturday:"))
day7 = int(input("Enter miles for Sunday:"))

if myDay <= 0:
    print("that number is wrong, select a number superior then 0")
    myDay = int(input("Try again"))

total = day1   day2   day3   day4   day5   day6   day7
print("The total mileage is", total)

print("Cost of petrol", total * 1.35 / 11.2)

By creating a function, you can simply add a while that will retry while the condition is not met.

def new_day(day_name):
    day = 0
    first = True
    while day <= 0:
        if first:
            first = False
        else:
            print("that number is wrong, select a number superior then 0")
        day = int(input(f"Enter miles for {day_name}:"))

    return day


day1 = new_day("Monday")
day2 = new_day("Tuesday:")
day3 = new_day("Wednesday:")
day4 = new_day("Thursday:")
day5 = new_day("Friday:")
day6 = new_day("Saturday:")
day7 = new_day("Sunday:")

total = day1   day2   day3   day4   day5   day6   day7
print("The total mileage is", total)

print("Cost of petrol", total * 1.35 / 11.2)

how are you doing, i am also newcomer in python learning, so i think that's the solution:

day1=int(input('Enter miles:'))
day2=int(input('Enter miles:'))

weekday=[day1, day2]

for i in weekday:
  if i<=0:
    print('that number is wrong, type another one:')
    i=int(input('write:'))
    weekday.append(i)

total=sum(weekday)
print(total)
print(total*1.35/11.2)
