Python creating username and password program

Question

I am just a beginner programmer as of right now, and I am trying to create a username/password program. Here is my code below:

username = 'Polly1220'

password = 'Bob'

userInput = input("What is your username?\n")

if userInput == username:
    a=input("Password?\n")   
    if a == password:
        print("Welcome!")
    else:
        print("That is the wrong password.")
else:
    print("That is the wrong username.")

Whenever I run my program and input the correct password as shown, it always says that the password is incorrect.

Solution 1

You need to assign the second input statement to userInput:

if userInput == username:
    userInput = input("Password?\n")   
    if userInput == password:
       print("Welcome!")
    else:
       print("That is the wrong password.")
else:
    print("That is the wrong username.")

Solution 2

You forget asign the variable:

if userInput == username
   userinput = input("Password?\n")   
    if userInput == password:
        print("Welcome!")
    else:
        print("That is the wrong password.")
else:
    print("That is the wrong username.")

You never assign the password input to anything
