Odd. 

import time 

print("start")
for i in range(5):
    print("never again!",end='\r')
    time.sleep(0.5)
print("\ndone")

You don't need the sleep either. 

    print(i, "never again!",end='\r')

without the sleep gives

$ python junk.py
start
4 never again!
done

Put the sleep back in and you can see it counting up. It must be a timing 
thing in the console. My original use was reading a DHT11 with a Pico 
using MicroPython

https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/758/DHT11-Technical-Data-Sheet-
Translated-Version-1143054.pdf

The print() output goes to the terminal in VS Code. I wanted the update to 
be

temperature: 68.0 F humidity: 36%

and stay on the one line without scrolling each second. You can't read the 
DHT11 faster than once a second so it worked fine.  end='\n' is the 
default for print() and exactly what I didn't want.
