This actually returns a traceback error for me (a nameerror as 'clear' is not defined). I think what has to happen is that I need to "pop" out of interactive mode at which point clear WIlL work. How do I exit interactive mode?

Another if you'd like is just typing "clear" in the console.

I didn't know you could type clear() such as Afrid Mondal mentioned which is pretty cool.

"clear" also only works outside the REPL ^ in case that causes any confusion
