[Tutor] loops

[john public]

I am a beginning programmer. Here is my my first
program for tic tac toe. It works BUT, a simple loop
would shorten this code considerably.  Is there a way
to tell the program to go to the line:

 n = input("which sqaure")

once it gets to the end of the first cycle?

 Thanks!!

a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i =1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

square = ['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i']

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]

n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]
# end of first part, can we loop here?
# can we create functions and modules to shorten the
code?
n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]

n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]

n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]


 
n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]

n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]

n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]


n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]


n = input("which square?")



s = raw_input("who gets the square?")
square[n-1] = s 

print square[0],square[1],square[2]
print square[3],square[4],square[5]
print square[6],square[7],square[8]
