clear screen in python

Question

How to clear console screen in python?

Answer 1

Exactly, because it's OS-dependent. It executes the in-built operating system command, which is available only in DOS/Windows.
That's why it's better to use the multiple newlines thing.

Answer 2

print('\n'*25)

;)

Seriously, you can use os.system('cls') for windows or os.system('clear') fo Linux, but printing newlines is always guaranteed to work without importing any modules.
