Remove and Replace Printed items [duplicate]

Original close reason(s) were not resolved

I was wondering if it was possible to remove items you have printed in Python - not from the Python GUI, but from the command prompt. e.g.

a = 0  
for x in range (0,3):  
    a = a + 1  
    b = ("Loading" + "." * a)
print (a)

so it prints

>>>Loading   
>>>Loading. 
>>>Loading.. 
>>>Loading...

But, my problem is I want this all on one line, and for it it remove it self when something else comes along. So instead of printing "Loading", "Loading.", "Loading... I want it to print "Loading.", then it removes what is on the line and replaces it with "Loading.." and then remo开发者_运维技巧ves "Loading.." and replaces it (on the same line) with "Loading...". It's kind of hard to describe.

p.s I have tried to use the Backspace character but it doesn't seem to work ("\b")


Just use CR to go to beginning of the line.

import time
for x in range (0,5):  
    b = "Loading" + "." * x
    print (b, end="\r")
    time.sleep(1)


One way is to use ANSI escape sequences:

import sys
import time
for i in range(10):
    print("Loading" + "." * i)
    sys.stdout.write("\033[F") # Cursor up one line
    time.sleep(1)

Also sometimes useful (for example if you print something shorter than before):

sys.stdout.write("\033[K") # Clear to the end of line


import sys
import time

a = 0  
for x in range (0,3):  
    a = a + 1  
    b = ("Loading" + "." * a)
    # \r prints a carriage return first, so `b` is printed on top of the previous line.
    sys.stdout.write('\r'+b)
    time.sleep(0.5)
print (a)

Note that you might have to run sys.stdout.flush() right after sys.stdout.write('\r'+b) depending on which console you are doing the printing to have the results printed when requested without any buffering.
