You need to tell us more.
Is this a CLI program or a GUI? If a GUI which toolkit?
Tkinter? wxPython? other...
If a CLI which OS? If it is Unix like then the curses module
is your friend.
If its Windows the msvcrt module will help.

variable = not variable

will toggle a boolean between true/false.

But we need more context information to answer fully.
Ideally some code (even if it doesn't work) to see what
you are attempting.
