I wrote an algorithm for a calendar style that I found online. I would like it to print the algorithm in the tk window on the click of the button after entering a year. unfortunately, this will not be the case. I tested the algorithm alone using this code as an algorithm test tool.
def make_calendar(year, start_day):
tup = (('Early Winter', range(1, 37, + 1)),
('Mid Winter 37,', range(37, 1, + 1)),
('Late Winter ', range(38, 71, + 1)),
('Leap Day ', range(70, 69 + 1)),#tup(3) is this line i need to delete if not leap year
('Late Winter ', range(71, 74, + 1)),
('Early Spring ', range(1, 37, + 1)),
('Mid Spring 37,', range(37, 1, +1)),
('Late Spring ', range(38, 74, + 1)),
('Early Summer ', range(1, 37, + 1)),
('Mid Summer 37,', range(37, 1, +1)),
('Late Summer ', range(38, 74, + 1)),
('Early Autumn ', range(1, 37, + 1)),
('Mid Autumn 37,', range(37, 1, +1)),
('Late Autumn ', range(38, 74, + 1)),
('Early Fall ', range(1, 37, + 1)),
('Mid Fall 37, ', range(37, 1, +1)),
('Late Fall ', range(38, 74, + 1)));
week = ('Mer', 'Ven', 'Ear', 'Mar', 'Jup', 'Sat', 'Ura', 'Nep', 'Plu')
start_pos = week.index(start_day)
def is_leap(year):
if (not year%4 and year%100 or not year%400): # algorithm to determine leap year
return True
if not is_leap(year):
del tup(3)
for month, days in tup:
# Print month title
print('{0} {1}'.format(month, year).center(20, ' '))
# Print Day headings
print(''.join(('{0:<3}'.format(w) for w in week)))
# Add spacing for non-zero starting position
print('{0:<3}'.format('')*start_pos, end='')
for day in days:
# Print day
print('{0!s:<3}'.format(day), end='')
start_pos += 1
if start_pos == 9:
# If start_pos == 9 (Sunday) start new line
print()
start_pos = 0 # Reset counter
print('n')
start_day=(input('Enter start day of the year Mer,Ven,Ear,Mar,Jup,Sat,Ura,Nep,Plu'))
year=int(input('Enter Year'))
make_calendar(year, start_day)
here i have designed a tkinter window on which the algorithm is supposed to print, but it will not print in the tk window and i am not getting any error message.
So basically the algorithm will work and print in the terminal but when it is coded to work in a tkinter window it does not return anything. the widget i created is useless if the algorithm does not print on it. I have tested the algorithm and it works. I tested the tkinter buttons and they don't seem to print. I do not know how to solve this problem.
import tkinter as tk
#varContent = inputentry.get() # get what's written in the inputentry entry widget
#outputtext.delete('0', 'end-1c') # clear the outputtext text widget
#outputtext.insert(varContent) # print content
#these functions may be relevant to the solution I cannot figure out their implementation in this code.

stack overflow doesn't allow me to post right now and that seems to be the second most relevant place to ask.
