I am new to Python. In fact I am new to all of programming, having only =
done a tiny bit on my calculator (a Texas Instruments). What I wanted to =
know was that if I have a programming code, and want to go to a certain =
point in the code, from another point, how do I do that (what is the =
code for it)?
Example:
print 'Main Menu'
print '1. something'
print '2. something else'
print '3...'

a =3D int(raw_input("choose "))
if a =3D=3D 1:
    (some function, doesn't matter what in my question)
    print '1. back to main menu'
    print '2. Quit'

    b =3D int(raw_input("choose "))

    if b =3D=3D 1:
    ???

Oh, and how do I clear the screen on the python interpreter (with a code =
built-in in the program).

Sincerly
Thomas Torp
