Refresh console without printing every time

[RustyJoe]

Hi, I'm writing a little game. The "playground" is a matrix and player has to move trough it so I'm questioning if exist a way to refresh the console to visualize the player's moves on the matrix without printing it every time.
Thanks

Does there exist a way to refresh the console to visualize the player's moves on the matrix without printing it every time.

Yes - use a TUI library such as ncurses.
