    Repeating question with a loop

    How can I get this question to keep repeating until either a yes or no is given as an answer:

    Code:
    response = raw_input("Are you ready? ")
if response.lower() == "yes":
     print "Alrighty then, let's begin!"
if response.lower() == "no":
    print "Try again later when you are ready"
    Let's say you enter: maybe
    I'd like the question to keep repeating. I tried making some 'for' loops but wasn't doing it right.

      Encapsulate the input in a while loop. Use an if, elif, else block instead of multiple if statements.

      Code:
      while True:
    response = raw_input("Are you ready? ")
    if response.lower() == "yes":
         print "Alrighty then, let's begin!"
         break
    elif response.lower() == "no":
        print "Try again later when you are ready"
        break
    else:
        print "Please enter 'Yes' or 'No' please."

          I see. I thought about the 'while' loop too but wasn't sure how to implement it. Thanks!
