i know how to do this already. the problem is i want the text to stay in the windowa nd not start overwriting "Answer:". i have solved this by using an Entry for the answer as well but id prefer using a Label. here is the code: from __future__ import division import Tkinter from Tkinter import * mygui = Tkinter.Tk() mygui.title("Calculator") l = Label(mygui, text="Answer: ") l.place(relx=0.15, rely=0.2, anchor=CENTER) e = Entry(mygui) e.place(relx=0.4, rely=0.1, anchor=CENTER) def Disp(nstr): e.insert(END, nstr) def Calc(): expr=e.get() try: b = Label(mygui, text=eval(expr)) b.place(relx=0.4, rely=0.2, anchor=CENTER) except: b = Label(mygui, text="Not computable") b.place(relx=0.4, rely=0.2, anchor=CENTER) def Erase(): e.delete(0,END) x = 0.1 y = 0.4 for char in '123+456-789*0()/.': b = Button(mygui, text=char, command=lambda n=char:Disp(n), width=2, height=1) b.place(relx=x, rely=y, anchor=CENTER) x=x+0.1 if x==0.5: x=0.1 y=y+0.1 b = Button(mygui, text="^", command=lambda n="**":Disp(n), width=2, height=1) b.place(relx=0.2, rely=0.8, anchor=CENTER) b = Button(mygui, text="C",command=Erase, width=2, height=1) b.place(relx=0.3, rely=0.8, anchor=CENTER) b = Button(mygui, text="=",command=Calc, width=2, height=1) b.place(relx=0.4, rely=0.8, anchor=CENTER) mygui.mainloop() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
