If you have explorer mode, use __import__("os").system("cls" if os.name == "nt" else "clear").
If not, use __import__("replit").clear().

thanks that worked

Hey,
The way I usually do it only works on Repl.it, but is very easy:

import replit
do_stuff()
replit.clear()

Hope you found this comment helpful

@minx28 Only works in the terminal. You cannot run it in main.py

import replit
replit.clear()

works just fine in main.py

@fullern000 i think you're getting a bit confused - it only works in eval mode, which is when you only have a single .py file

@minermaniac447 Really? That has changed then since I last used it. It used to be that you could only do that in the shell.
