hi everyone,

i have the following program:

import time
count_timer = int(raw_input('how many seconds?: '))
for i in range(count_timer, 0, -1):
     print i
     time.sleep(1)
print 'blast off!'


this is the result:

how many seconds?: 5
5
4
3
2
1
blast off!

how can i have it print  a row of stars beside each number, like this?:

how many seconds?: 5
5 * * * * *
4 * * * *
3 * * *
2 * *
1 *
blast off!
