cls: Clear the screen.
$ cls

The command "cls" is a command prompt command used in Windows operating systems to clear the screen and remove all text and output from the command prompt window. It stands for "clear screen" and is a quick way to tidy up the command prompt interface, making it easier to read and enter new commands. When you enter "cls" in the command prompt and press enter, the entire window will be cleared, removing any previous commands, outputs, or error messages.
