need help in my programming what i want it to do is turn on lights (left) and open a door (right) using password lock then needing another password to open another door all on one computer
this is what i have written

print("systerm online")
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
password = "BattleSeure"
debug ="12345"
pass = "12345"
print ("security systerm")
write ("password required: ")
input = read()
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
if input == password then
print ("access granted")
redstone.setOutput ("right", true)
print ("lights online")
sleep(2)
redstone.setOutput ("left", true)
print ("door open")
sleep (5)
redstone.setOutput("left",false)
print ("Safe security")
write "password required: "
input = read()
if input == passthen
print ("safe access granted")
redstone.setOutput ("back",true)
sleep(2)
redstone.setOutput ("right", false)
os.shutdown()
elseif
input == debug then
exit()
else
print("password incorrect!")
sleep(5)
os.shutdown()
end
this is my first time i used other people programs to make this so not all of it was mine it may be miner issues or rookie mistakes thanks for any help

do u want the error message?
bios:206 [string "startup"]:37: 'end' expected (to close 'if' at line 12)

[1v2]

I've cleaned it up a bit, that error was because you didn't close the if-statement at line 12.


This should work, but I haven't tested it.

local funtion clear()
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
end
local password = "BattleSeure"
local pass = "12345"
local debug = "1234"
os.pullEvent = os.pullEventRaw
print("system online")
clear()
print ("security system")
write ("password required: ")
input = read()
clear()
if input == password then
print ("access granted")
rs.setOutput ("right", true)
print ("lights online")
sleep(2)
rs.setOutput ("left", true)
print ("door open")
sleep (5)
rs.setOutput("left",false)
end
print ("Safe security")
write "password required: "
input = read()
if input == pass then
print ("safe access granted")
rs.setOutput ("back",true)
sleep(2)
rs.setOutput ("right", false)
os.shutdown()
elseif
input == debug then
exit()
else
print("password incorrect!")
sleep(5)
os.shutdown()
end

I'll point out the line causing the issue. See if you can spot what is wrong.

local funtion clear()

[virtualayu]

function not funtion
and maybe i'm wrong but i think you can't create a function named clear() , i'm not sure...
anyway it'll be better to name it clearScreen() or something like that but it's just for an easy reading of your code...

and i really don't understand why you use local term to declare a function or a variable.... your program is so small... you don't need it... and declaring local vars is only if you declare it inside a function... (maybe i'm wrong?) declaring a variable like you did is useless because it will be declare as a global one anyway... (aigain i'm maybe wrong... XD)
