How do I print over some strings that already existed?

For example, I have "Hello World" printed, then the cursor goes back to 'H' and print "Great" so it changes the word into "Great World"

William Tseng the carriage return \r can be used to override the current line of the terminal. But I don't think it will work on SoloLearn console.

You can add it into a variable, print the variable, make changes to it and then print again the same variable. You can also use clear screen function to make it appear like if it was changing

that's the only way to achieve it? Can't we move the cursor around the console?
