Does it print something like
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<string>", line 0

SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing
when it stops? This is called a "traceback" and you should always include it
in your post when you need help with an error in your script.
In this particular case the problem is that you are using Python 2 where
input() tries to execute the text the user enters as Python code.
Tian's example code assumes Python 3.
To fix your problem replace the line
choices = input("letter s to stop:")
in your script with
choices = raw_input("letter s to stop:")
