this func contains a bug, if you enter a number <= 0 it starts an infinite loop (and this is the reason why we have to avoid infinite loops) without exit caused by absence of another input inside the loop.
This changed version would work correctly:

print("Value of timer must be greater than 0.")
return timer

"""Setting the timer in seconds"""
