I have this function I have written that shows how much of a percentage is done given progress in a loop..so..if you are iterating through a loop that is 500 long, at 200 it says "40%",240 "48%", and so on, but, how do you just change the value on the screen, not print a new one on a new line?

I can recommend you the package tqdm (https://github.com/tqdm/tqdm) You can replace the standard for statement with it, or use it with any other iterable. By default, it gives you a progress bar with a percentage and ETA, but you can also configure it to only print the percentage, if you want that. If you want to use print statements, adding \r at the beginning and not putting a line end should also do the trick.
