# 1) Create a 2D list using the repetition operator
# 2) Each element is the same

MAX_COLUMNS = 5
MAX_ROWS = 3
ELEMENT = "*"

aList = []
r = 0
while (r < MAX_ROWS):
   tempList = [ELEMENT] * MAX_COLUMNS
   aList.append(tempList)
   r = r + 1

r = 0
while (r < MAX_ROWS):
    c = 0
    while (c < MAX_COLUMNS):
        #Keep all row elements on same line
        print(aList[r][c], end = "")
        c = c + 1
    #Displayed whole row, move output to a new line
    print()
    r = r + 1
