change value when python is in infinite loop -

can done in python? start print infinite loop , changing values in between loops.

x = 5 while ( true ): print x x = 3 # regain command of interpreter , set new value

expected output:

5 5 5 ...... 3 3 3

no, code have written not work. statement after non-terminating loop never executed.

try following:

x = 5 while true: if (some-condition): x = 3 print x

alternatively, utilize threading, , alter value of x in sec thread:

def changex(): global x x = 3 x = 5 import threading threading.timer(3, changex).start() # executes changex after 3 seconds in sec thread while true: print x
