By screen you mean the terminal output? That command should be workin, however if you are using windows the system command for clearing the terminal is cls

no it's macOS but I am using PyCharm and in the run terminal there it doesn't work. Is it just because of PyCharm or the command is not working at all. I have it in the code and the program does not clear the screen.

In the Run tab, click the spanner icon and ensure "emulate terminal in output console" is checked.

oh ok thanks! yeah that works! It also works in the terminal so I guess that was the problem.
