In the context of SQL if your screen is cluttered during working and you want to get it clear, there is a MySQL clear screen command available whose name is “! Clear” or “/!cls” command.
The “! Clear” command can be used in Linux or Unix operating systems while “/!cls” can be used in Windows operating systems. Both commands invoke the the shell command of the system from the MySQL command line interface, which leads to get clear screen and provides a clean workspace.
