this is basically my first try at programming and the program is based off another i found heres the code i cant seem to get it to work

local color = colors.red

while true do
oldPull = os.pullEventRaw
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
term.setTextColor(color)
print("Zphone")
write("Username: ")
if read = "username" then
write(Password: ")
read("*") = "password" then
sleep(1)
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
else
print("Incorrect Login Details")
sleep()
print("Rebooting...")
sleep(1)
end
end
os.pullEvent = oldPull

know me this is probably horrible

its suppost to be a computer lock like
username:
Password:

You need () after read, or you're literally comparing a function to a string.

[Krul__Tepes]

i added () after read but it says
bios:14: [string " .temp"]: 10: 'then' expected

[Krul__Tepes]

any suggestion on how to fix that?

To compare things, you need to use ==, not just =.

i fixed it now i have another problem
im getting <eof> expected at line 34 i changed the code heres the new code for the ending

if read("*") == "password" then
print("Welcome")
sleep(1)
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
end
else
print("Incorrect Loging Details")
sleep()
print("Rebooting...")
sleep(1)
end

os.pullEvent = oldPull

nvm fixed that NOW i have a different problem xD

im trying to get it you type where i have write("Password: ")
but its typing at the bottom of the screen

[Krul__Tepes]

when i get the password wrong i have it reboot but when it reboots where i type the password goes to where i have the user at

[Krul__Tepes]
