How can you clear the console

Ask coding questions

I want to clear my console but I don't know how.
For example, I want to print something, make a delay, clear all of that, then print something new

Heres what the code my look like:
import time

print("Hey!")
time.sleep(1)
{The clear thing}
print("How are you?")

Method 1:


import replit
replit.clear()

Method 2:


import os
os.system('clear')

@Geocube101 Thanks! I already tried the imort os os.system('clear') but that didn't work. The first method did!


import os
clear = lambda: os.system("clear")
#do stuff
clear() #clear stuff

then you can use clear() to clear.

@Geocube101
I tried both methods. None worked.

@SuperKidCo Are you using windows?
if so, then you can use:


import os
os.system('cls')

If you're on repl.it and it still won't work then this could be a bug or problem with your repl

@Geocube101 this is correct:import replit
replit.clear()

@Geocube101 How do you do that in HTML?

@install you're trying to clear the javascript console?
If so there is a console.clear() function that clears the JS console

@Geocube101 think he wants to clear just the HTML console, not JS
