[Tutor] how come this doesnt work

Your problem lines in the differences in between the types - your num
variable is a float, whereas your m variable is a string. In order to
compare them here, you need to either use the float() function or the
str() function to convert one to a comparable data type, for example -

if m==str(num):
    print('you entered correctly, proceed')

Might I also note that your for loop does nothing except run once, and
the 0 is unnecessary.
