Simple Window using TkInter

Question

I'm new to TkInter and using Python to develop UI. So as a way of step-by-step learning, I'm just trying to get a window. I wrote the following simple code:

from Tkinter import Tk

window = Tk()
window.geometry("266x208")
window.title("Claculator")

I'm expecting an empty window that pops up when I run the code, but I get noting. Just Process finished with exit code 0. What am I missing?

PS: Python 2.7, Windows 7

You didn't do a

window.mainloop()

at the end. Check the Tkinter docs tkinter docs for more help.

At the end of your code, just add window.mainloop(). This tells tkinter that the form is ready and it can be shown to the user.
