Issues while running python code

Below is the code that I have written for one of the code challenges in the Python beginner track, The code is exactly same as the solutions provided by the instructor and still it does'nt work.

Need help!!!

name = input("Whats your Name? ")

usr_resp = input("{}, do you understand python while loops? \nEnter yes/no ".format(name))

while usr_resp != "yes":

print("ok, {}, while loops in Python repeat as long as a certain Boolean condition is met.".format(name))

user_resp = input("{}, now do you understand python while loops? \nEnter yes/no ".format(name))

print("That's great, {}. I 'm please that you understand while loops now. That was getting repetitive".format(name))

The variable tested in the loop is "usr_resp", but the variable that gets the user answer (for the second question) is "user_resp" instead.

The name needs to be spelled the same way each time it is used.
