Output
Enter data into the list
Enter number: 1
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 2
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 3
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 4
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 5
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 6
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 1
Enter number: 7
Do you wish to continue [1/0]: 0
