Updating variables
You've stored the initial values for a pasta recipe, but now you realize you need to make some adjustments. You prefer "fusilli" pasta instead of spaghetti, and you've decided to use more of it. In Python, you can easily update variables by reassigning them new values, just like you did when you first created them.
Let's practice updating your recipe variables and printing the new values to confirm the changes.
