How to access/ change a parameter inside loop?

As variables are local inside while/ for loop in Julia, I was wondering how to see the changes that happen inside loop and then use the values after changes??

For example, consider a very simple implementation of raising five to the power of three:

I did try this:

x1 = 5; n1 = 3; global result = 1;

for i in range(1,n1)
	result = result* x1
end
result

It will show the value of “1” for result. And once using global result = result* x1 inside for loop, it will return Multiple definitions for result.

Why is this? And how to save changes?
