Is there any way to clear nodeJs command prompt?

Question

Is there any way to clear out the Nodejs command prompt, if you want all previous information to disappear (start afresh without having to restart Nodejs command prompt)? My tutorial says to type in clr into it, but nothing happens when I do so.

Ctrl+L clears the command prompt screen when using node in Windows. — Arvind Dhasmana, May 06 '20 at 17:40

Seriously? What were they thinking? `process.stdout.write('\033c') ` is what I have to type everytime I want to clear the screen? – SamuraiJack Aug 26 '20 at 20:37

@SamuraiJack you can also call console.clear() or press CTRL+L on windows. – c0rnfl4k3s Aug 28 '20 at 16:29
