Why write while tickets_remaining >=1

Why would we write while tickets_remaining >= 1 rather than while tickets_remaining > 0? Is either one more correct in terms of writing the script?

Thanks for the help!

Hi there, Tyler Wells! Both are absolutely valid and serve the same purpose. My instinct is to say that he did it this way just to be extra clear that tickets are, in fact, available for sale.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
