Hi i've been coding a program, but i have a problem.

My problem is that i want my pc to return if fase. Like return without using the shell.run("startup").

Like this:
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
password = "test"
debug = "testreset"
print("This door is protected by password!")
write("Please enterpassword: ")
A = read("X")
if A == password then
...blalalalal....
else return - Here i wan it to retur up to "if A == password then" if false! And only if false!

Any help?

Just use a while loop: 
os.pullEvent = os.pullEventRaw --Prevent CTRL+T
term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
local password = "test"
local debug = "testreset"
print("This door is protected by password!")
while true do
  write("Please enterpassword: ")
  a = read("*")
  if a == password then
    print("Correct password. Door now opening.")
    rs.setOutput("left", true)
    sleep(5)
    rs.setOutput("left", false)
  else
    print("Incorrect password! Please try again.")
end

Would someone teach these people to read?!
This is the APIS AND UTILITIES SECTION OF THE PROGRAMS SUBFORUM. Where in that sentence is there anything saying, "Post problems here!"?
For f***'s sake. -.-

	print("Correct password. Door now opening.")
	rs.setOutput("left", true)
	sleep(5)
	rs.setOutput("left", false)
  else
	print("Incorrect password! Please try again.")
end

Okay, but I get a error i guess the end doesnt support while loop.
