Python While Loops - Repeat Code with Conditions

Build your first Python `while` loop by controlling a simple status dashboard countdown. You'll see how repeated actions, Boolean conditions, changing state, and stopping conditions work together so code repeats only while a condition stays true.

Challenge
Complete this function:

```python
def count_down(start):
pass
```

Expected behavior:
`count_down(3)` returns `[3, 2, 1]`
`count_down(1)` returns `[1]`
The countdown stops before `0`

Worked Solution

```python
def count_down(start):
numbers = [] # Store each positive countdown number.
seconds_left = start # Track the changing dashboard state.

while seconds_left ＞ 0: # Repeat while the countdown is still positive.
numbers.append(seconds_left) # Save the current countdown value.
seconds_left = seconds_left - 1 # Move one step closer to stopping.

return numbers # Return the completed countdown list.

print(count_down(3)) # [3, 2, 1]
print(count_down(1)) # [1]
```

The key is that `seconds_left` is both checked by the condition and changed inside the loop. That state change is what prevents an infinite loop.
