I'm looking for a function that works exactly like replit.clear() for windows. Because the tutorial I follow is taught through replit but I'm using pycharm. I tried installing replit package through pycharm , install was successfull. But still when I run the function with replit. clear() after importing replit, there is no difference in output, it's as if I commented that particular line having replit.clear(). I tried using os module too

import os
print("before clear")
os.system("clear")
print("after clear")

but i get

'clear' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

when i tried running this code,

import os
print("before clear")
os.system("cls")
print("after clear")

I get these(which is not desirable), here "before clear" should vanish

before clear
after clear
module function python

You can do it using os.system(). However there are different arguments based on your OS:

If you're using Linux or Mac:

import os
os.system(‘clear’)

If you're using Windows:

import os
os.system('cls')
