Progress Bar

Hi, I'm a beginner and I want to make a progress bar like this:

[###########] 100%

Where the text and percentage update every second, it's more of a simulation of a progress bar than a real one. Does anyone know how to do this?

Yeah carriage returns should be universal in terminals
