• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

Like for example
a = 1
b = 1
for i in range (3)
c = a + b
print (c)

and then I want to change the a or b variable in the for loop

change to what?

2 for example

[signal birch]

you can just re-assign it to a different value

[placid forge]

just numbers

so just basicly a = 3

Or is there anything else

[signal birch]

it's the exact same as creating the variable in first place

[placid forge]

Okay thank you that's all I needed

[signal birch]

name = value will create if it does not exists yet, or overwrite the value if it already exists

[placid forge]

Thanks

[signal birch]

you have to be careful about mutability later on though, when working with lists/dictionaries

[placid forge]

I'm not on that level yet
