bruh im like 'ok maybe i can try learning python on my own' and immediately am stuck cause i cant figure out how to make my cursor go up to delete a previous line
Ok you’ve got Python running on your terminal but that’s not very useful to you yet. When you downloaded Python, it should’ve downloaded IDLE as well. Open that up and click new file. Write something like this in there and click F5 to run it. Mess around and have fun.
One way to think about it: you’re (most likely) using something analogous to a live chat where you obviously can’t delete the messages you already sent either.
You need to find some analogue of Word or Notepad to compose the whole message before you send it.
