Clear console with command

Question

Like this is my console currently with lots of line in it

Is there any javascript or jquery command with which i can clear the console.

I don't want to hit clear button with mouse. Only a code command is required.

Try this:

console.clear();

You can use this code in your scripts. Read more about console.

Note that in Google Chrome, console.clear() has no effect if the user has selected "Preserve log upon navigation" in the settings.

Update: As noticed @evolutionxbox you can use just clear() to do that. You'll get the same result.

You can also clear console in the web browsers with keyboard shortcuts: CTRL + L

Clear console in Firebug: ALT + R

A common convention for all browsers is

clear()

for chrome and some other webkit based browsers you can also use

console.clear()
