Is there any function which clears pycharm output screen?

Question

os.system('cls') doesn't work. It just simply puts a square box at end of output

@Klaus D I have seen that question before. Although there is workaround mentioned in answer to that questiojn using pyautogui. I wanted to know if method exists or not. Maybe there exists an library for pycharm console which I don't know of — Utkrisht, Mar 23 '20 at 13:51

If you check the documentation of os.system function, it says, execute the command in a subshell.

def system(*args, **kwargs): # real signature unknown
    """ Execute the command in a subshell. """
    pass

That means, your main console is receiving the output of cls command run in subconsole ada
