If we change the condition in the while loop to while a <= 7, the loop will run an extra time, causing the text `The current value of a is:  8` to be printed as well.  
The following is a python function that completes the same actions as the pseudo code that you originally gave me:
```py
a = 3

while a < 7:
    a += 1
    print("The current value of a is: " + str(a))
    
    if a == 5:
        print("a is now 5")
```
Please note that this code does not reflect the change that you suggested, and is instead a reflection of the original pseudocode, as you requested.
