Does anyone know how to clear the screen during the code?
a clear command would be very useful to my program and I don't know one.

hey!

because you are using python, it is pretty easy to do this

at the top of your file


import replit

to clear the screen, call the clear function


replit.clear()

if you want to see this in action, i forked a repl (credit to

) here

hope i could help :P

do you know how to do this in c++? :)

i dont believe the usual way peopls use to clear the screen in c++ work in repl (i havent actually tried it myself, this is what i heard). this is why you have to import the replit module in python - i dont think there is a similar thing for c++ :P

In python you can also import system and do system("cls") and it should clear the console

"clear" works now

alright thanks anyway

I know a very simple way.
from time import sleep
import os

def cls():
os.system('cls' if os.name=='nt' else 'clear')

print('Hello, World!')
sleep(2.5)
cls()
print('Nice to meet you!')
#This is python way

What about in Python

What language are you using?

I am using python... I should have specified that. My bad

try print("\x1b[2J\x1b[H", end="")
