No module named 'tkinter' and doesn't import-CodePudding

I installed tkinter and my python version is 3.6.9 but it still doesn't import

import tkinter

from tkinter import *
root = tkinter.Tk(  )
for r in range(3):
   for c in range(4):
      tkinter.Label(root, text='R%s/C%s'%(r,c),
         borderwidth=1 ).grid(row=r,column=c)
root.mainloop(  )

error is import tkinter ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tkinter'

CodePudding user response：

Maybe it's happening because of an installation error. So, please make sure that tkinter is installed properly. like, for ubuntu or other distros with apt,

sudo apt-get install python3-tk

additionally, for me, it's always the best way to run a project is via a virtual environment. So, after checking the installation, if it again doesn't run, try this after creating a virtual environment.

CodePudding user response：

If you are importing all from tkinter (from tkinter import *), you should call functions not like:

tkinter.Tk()

But like:

Tk()
