The Tkinter module comes with the normal Python installation. It allows you to create Python GUI programs for Windows, Linux or Unix on the Mac. In this snippet we put a GIF image (.gif) onto a form's canvas with just a few lines of code. Most of the lines are …

Yes, there is a devlopment of a full featured GUI Operating System written in Python under the name Unununium (wouldn't be my choice), nicknamed after the 111th chemical element 'Roentgenium', whose temporary IUPAC name until November 2004 was 'Unununium'.

Two movies I saw in the theater, and thought they were worth seeing again. So I bought the DVDs: "Crazy Stupid Love" with Steve Carell and Lulianne Moore. "Friends With Benefits" with Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake.

Just a little quirk in Tkinter. Since the canvas has a default border of 2 pixels simply give it a [B]bd=-2[/B] to cancel it.

What "Hello World" is to the console, the "Bouncing Ball" is to the Graphical User Interface. Nothing fancy, the ball is created via a call to the API function ellipse() and then bounced within the confines of the windows form. For the DEV C++ crowd: Let me know if you …

I assume you are using Windows. With your knowledge in basic you should look into BCX. It programs in a modern basic and then translates to compile with a number of C or C++ compilers. I look at C is just a subset of C++, well let's say 99% of …
