How do I write output in same place on the console?

Question

You can also use the carriage return:

sys.stdout.write("Download progress: %d%%   \r" % (progress) )
sys.stdout.flush()

Python 2

I like the following:

print 'Downloading File FooFile.txt [%d%%]\r'%i,

Demo:

import time

for i in range(100):
    time.sleep(0.1)
    print 'Downloading File FooFile.txt [%d%%]\r'%i,

Python 3

print('Downloading File FooFile.txt [%d%%]\r'%i, end="")

Demo:

import time

for i in range(100):
    time.sleep(0.1)
    print('Downloading File FooFile.txt [%d%%]\r'%i, end="")

PyCharm Debugger Console with Python 3

# On PyCharm Debugger console, \r needs to come before the text.
# Otherwise, the text may not appear at all, or appear inconsistently.
# tested on PyCharm 2019.3, Python 3.6

import time

print('Start.')
for i in range(100):
    time.sleep(0.02)
    print('\rDownloading File FooFile.txt [%d%%]'%i, end="")
print('\nDone.')

Use a terminal-handling library like the curses module:

The curses module provides an interface to the curses library, the de-facto standard for portable advanced terminal handling.

Print the backspace character \b several times, and then overwrite the old number with the new number.

For Python 3xx:

import time
for i in range(10):
    time.sleep(0.2) 
    print ("\r Loading... {}".format(i)+str(i), end="")
