[New-bugs-announce] [issue40709] Malfunctioning of '\r'

[Sanmitha]

New submission from Sanmitha <sanmithasadhishkumar at gmail.com>:

The escape sequence '\r' (carriage return) doesn't function in 3.x and 2.x versions.
Eg:
print("computer\rscience")
Expected output : sciencer
But, it displays computerscience without the functioning of'\r'
