title: How to set variable equal to for loop in python
body: <p>This is my code. How do I make bownew = multiple rows of *'s? I do not want to just print for x in range(height):print bownew. I want bownew to be equal to the for x in range(height). How can this be done?</p>
  
  <pre><code>height = int(input("Enter an odd number greater than 4: "));
  column = height * 2;
  
  screen = [];
  bownew = ""
  
  def bow(height):
      for x in range(height):
          screen.append(["*"]*column);
  
  bow(height);
  
  for i in screen:
      bownew = " ".join(i)
  print(bownew)
  </code></pre>
