I'm trying to write a program that puts asterisks around the input text using

I can do this without using while loop, but how can you do that using while
loop?Example:Enter a string: Hello world***********Hello world***********
while understand_problem is False:
study("textbook")
complete("homework")
if want_help is True:
study("http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html";)
That's not Pythonic, and you shouldn't use "is" except when checking for
identity. The recommended style is:
while not understand_problem:
study("textbook")
complete("homework")
if want_help:
study("http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html";)
See how much clearer that is? ;-)
