Python how to make simple animated loading while process is running

Question

This is pretty much what I have right now:

import time
import sys

done = \'false\'
#here is the animation
def animate():
    while done == \'false\':
               


        

Answer 1

Try this one

import time
import sys


animation = "|/-\\"

for i in range(100):
    time.sleep(0.1)
    sys.stdout.write("\r" + animation[i % len(animation)])
    sys.stdout.flush()
    #do something
print("End!")
