Example: python countdown
import tkinter as tk
class ExampleApp(tk.Tk):
def __init__(self):
tk.Tk.__init__(self)
self.label = tk.Label(self, text="", width=10)
self.label.pack()
self.remaining = 0
self.countdown(10)
def countdown(self, remaining = None):
if remaining is not None:
self.remaining = remaining
if self.remaining <= 0:
self.label.configure(text="time's up!")
else:
self.label.configure(text="%d" % self.remaining)
self.remaining = self.remaining - 1
self.after(1000, self.countdown)
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = ExampleApp()
app.mainloop()
