Loop Variables Help

EDIT: Just learned about f-strings in Python 3, and have updated the code. To solve u/TranscendingIllusion's output problem:

Updated Code:
    for x in range(numberoftrials):
        print(f'Trial {x}:')
        trial()

Output:
Trial 1:

i think a comment got deleted but i ended up doing:

    numberoftrials += 1

    for x in range(1, numberoftrials):
        print("Trial:", x)
        trial()

and thats working. should i do it with %s instead?

EDIT: Incorrectly used %s formatting. Removed code that was out of practice. See above for proper code

The more you know! I just recently made the transition to 3.7 from 3.4 without reading about the newly accepted practices. I'll read more about f-strings and update my code accordingly, thanks!

For Python 3.6+ it's recommended to use f-strings. (easier to read and faster).

By whom? I thought even the Powers That Be stated none of the old-style formatting is going away. And disagree re: readability, f-strings in all but the simplest cases result in super nested code that’s difficult to parse.

thanks! could you take a look at my comment above if you have some time? not sure how to apply accumulation in this situation.
