If you wanna click on the screen with python i recommend you use pyautogui. https://pyautogui.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ If you want to download it onto terminal just type pip install pyautogui!

Here are some clicks you can use:

import pyautogui

pyautogui.click()          # Click the mouse.

pyautogui.click(100, 200)  # Move the mouse to XY coordinates and click it.

pyautogui.click('button.png') # Find where button.png appears on the screen and click it.
