What is the usage of the tkinter module in Python?
Tkinter is the standard GUI (Graphical User Interface) package for Python, used to create and manage window applications. It offers a set of classes and methods for creating GUI applications.
Here are some common uses of the Tkinter module:
- Import the Tkinter module.
- import everything from the tkinter library
- Create main window.
- Create a new instance of a Tkinter window by calling the Tk() method.
- Add components to the window.
- Create a label in the tkinter root window with the text “Hello, tkinter!” and pack it.
- Set the title of the window:
- Set the title of the application to “My Application”.
- Message loop of the running window:
- Execute the main event loop.
- “Create a button and add an event handler function:”
- Create a function called button_click that prints “Button clicked!” when a button with the text “Click Me” is clicked on, and add this button to the root interface.
- Create a text box and prompt the user for input:
- Create an entry field on the main window and display it.
Create a button with the label “Get Input” that, when clicked, will retrieve the user input from the entry field and display it.
This is just a small fraction of the features in the Tkinter module; it also offers other components, layout managers, event handling, and more, which can be used according to specific needs.
