sorry for this mess (copy pasted from the wrong source).
The code should be:

def test():
     # Simulate a slow calculation that prints status and/or error
     # messages to stderr.
     for i in range(10):
         print(i, file=sys.stderr, end="", flush=True)
         time.sleep(2)
     print("", file=sys.stderr)
