I am trying to make the input function remove itself after sometime, let me give you an example...
import time
example = input("What is your name?")
time.sleep(0.5)
#And now i need this input to remove, How do i do this?

3Do you mean that you want the _prompt_ ("What is your name?") to no longer be shown in your terminal? – Arya McCarthy Feb 22 '21 at 03:32

Do you want the `time.sleep` call to be running *while* the program is waiting for input? Because it doesn't do that currently, it only starts *after* the input is received. – Blckknght Feb 22 '21 at 06:17

sorry @Zubhei Federer I dont think you understood my question, I want it to make the input dissapear from the terminal after 0.5 seconds, both the input i type for the `("What is your name?")` and the question – Noob Feb 23 '21 at 02:25

@Noob Being clearer about that will get you better answers—there's no _function_ that's being removed here. – Arya McCarthy Feb 23 '21 at 02:25

@AryaMcCarthy , what I mean is I want the question `("What is your name")` and the user input i type in to be deleted after 0.5 seconds. Also sorry for my unclear question. – Noob Feb 23 '21 at 03:14
