[SOLVED] A question to tkinter python

See actually I was trying to created a calculator with tkinter . My personal logic 1). I created 25 buttons 2). Each button which can be used in evel function ie. 1234567890+/*- is commnded with cal function. Means whenever any of these button is pressed cal function is called with a parameter of itself value as a string 3). This function append the value in a list every time it is called 4). The appended list is joined and shows to a screen . This is all what i wamt to did till now . But problem is that when the problem executes first time then automatically 11 times function runs each time for every buttons. And it print the content over label .. I dont need that actually. In my view it seems all right . See the code and run the code for better understanding . Have a look to code \/ https://code.sololearn.com/c84jeOHL0kL5/?ref=app [ SOLVED ! ]

This is because you're calling the functions when setting your command=func You just want the identifier without the parentheses. For the functions that you need to pass the arguments you can just use a lambda and call the function in the lambda with the arguments. Here is an example of each of the above. Button(root, command=ac, bg=o, text="AC", height=3, width=5).place(x=370, y=300) Button(root, command=lambda: cal("%"), bg=sb, text="%", height=3, width=5).place(x=550, y=300) Apply this principle to the rest of your buttons and retest.

Yup, that's correct. That link has some other work arounds for simple ways to set the function and pass arguments etc.

Thanks ChaoticDawg I totally forgotten about it. That we can't pass a function with parenthesis directly over a command. Because it will call the function in that way . Thanku so much bro . 🤗🤗🤗🤗
