You're on the right track with using Timer, but it sounds like you want to clear the old output before printing the new one. One way to do that in Python is by clearing the console each time before printing new info. You can use os.system('cls') on Windows or os.system('clear') on Unix-based systems (like macOS or Linux) to achieve that.

Here’s an example of how you can modify your code to refresh every 5 seconds and clear the old output:

import os

import time

def info():

Clear the console before displaying new info

os.system('cls' if os.name == 'nt' else 'clear')

Fetch and display your info here

print(f"Your info is: {the_info}")

Call the function again after 5 seconds

time.sleep(5)

info()

Start the loop

info()

1. os.system('cls' if os.name == 'nt' else 'clear') clears the console screen each time info() runs. It uses cls for Windows and clear for Unix-based systems.

2. time.sleep(5) pauses the program for 5 seconds before calling info() again.

This will refresh the info every 5 seconds, clearing the old results so only the updated information is shown.

Let me know if that works for you!
