how to update a variable

[snippsat]

You should update your Python to 3.6 or newer,Python 3.8 (3.6-3.7) and pip installation under Windows
I use f-string here,which was great update in 3.6(4-year ago).
Here the same with older format().

second = 1
third = 1
while second < 100:
    while third < 50:
        third += 1
        print('{} **'.format(third))
    second += 1
    print(second)
