I want to run a infinite loop and check for a specific condition at the set minute how can i do it

Question

from datetime import datetime
check_min=[9,15,25,35,45,55]
check_sec=1
time_now=datetime.now()
min_now=time_now.minute
second_now=time_now.second
something=True
while True:
    if min_now in check_min and something==True:
        print("Yes")
        something=False
        
        
        

I am trying to run a infinite loop which checks for a specific condition in the given list of minutes.The loop is getting stuck if the programme is executed in the minutes when not in the list,How do I solve this?

Answer 1

You have to get min_now every time the loop repeats:

from datetime import datetime
check_min=[9,15,25,35,45,55]
check_sec=1
something=True
while True:
    time_now=datetime.now()
    min_now=time_now.minute
    second_now=time_now.second
    if min_now in check_min and something==True:
        print("Yes")
        something=False

(I put second_now in there also, but if you are not checking seconds then you don't need it. Depends on the program.)
