Python clear the screen code?
Question: I am still trying to make my quiz, but I want to enter a clear the screen code
for my questions. So, after researching, I found a code that works, but it
puts my questions way to the bottom of the screen. Here is a screenshot I
took:

![The Image is below](http://i.stack.imgur.com/23cCu.png)

here is a example of the clear the screen code I found:

    
    
    print "\n" * 40
    

So I tried changing the "40" To "20" but there was no effects. I am operating
on Mac so the

    
    
    import os
    os.system('blahblah')
    

does not work. Please help!


Answer: As @pNre noted, [this
question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2084508/clear-terminal-in-python)
shows you how to do this with ASCI escape sequences.

If you'd like to do this using the `os` module, then on Mac the command is
`clear`.

    
    
    import os
    os.system('clear')
    

Note: The fact that you are on a Mac does not mean `os.system('blahblah')`
will not work. It is more likely the command you are passing to `os.system`
was erroneous.

See answer below for how to do this on Windows/Linux.
