Answer 1

In Python, you can use the built-in function `print()` to display text on the console. However, once the text is printed, you cannot delete or clear it using the `print()` function.

If you want to clear the console screen, you can use the `os` module to run a command that clears the screen. Here is an example:

```python
import os

# clear the console screen
os.system('cls' if os.name == 'nt' else 'clear')
```

The `os. name` attribute returns the name of the operating system dependent module imported. If it's `'nt'`, the operating system is Windows, and the command `'cls'` is used to clear the console screen. If it's not `'nt'`, the command `'clear'` is used to clear the console screen.

If you want to delete or clear the text that you have already printed to the console, you can use the `'\r'` character to return to the beginning of the current line and overwrite the text. Here is an example:

```python
import time

print("Counting down:")
for i in range(10, 0, -1):
print(i, end='\r')
time.sleep(1)
print("Blast off!")
```

In this example, we print the numbers 10 to 1 with the `'\r'` character at the end of each print statement. This moves the cursor back to the beginning of the line, allowing us to overwrite the previous number with the next one. After the countdown is complete, we print "Blast off!" on a new line.

Answer 5

The del keyword deletes Objects, Lists, Variables, etc so when you print it out it doesnt know what x is because its deleted
