Write a Python program to add a prefix text to all of the lines in a string

The program uses the textwrap module in Python to process and format text. The text is stored in the para string and has multiple lines and indents. The textwrap.dedent function is used to remove the common indentation from the text stored in para. The resulting text without indentation is stored in the without_Indent variable.

The textwrap.fill function is then used to wrap the text stored in without_Indent to a specified width of 70 characters. The resulting text is stored in the txt variable. Finally, the textwrap.indent function is used to add a specified prefix to the start of each line in the text stored in txt. In this case, the prefix is '* ', which is added to each line of text stored in txt. The resulting text with the added prefix is stored in the res variable and is printed to the console.
