Problem when running my code with python3 tkinter

Question

I'm new to Python 3 programming and are getting errors that I can't seem to fix. I'm trying to make a text editor. This is the code:

import tkinter as tk


class PyText:

    def __init__(self, master):
        master.title("Untitled - PyText")
        master.geometry("1200x700")


if __name__ == "__main__":
    master = tk.TK()
    pt = PyText(master)
    master.mainloop()

Running it I get: Traceback (most recent call last): File "textEdit.py", line 12, in master = tk.TK() AttributeError: module 'tkinter' has no attribute 'TK'

How can I fix this??? Thank you for the help!

The error is telling you the problem. There is no attribute named TK. It's Tk. — Bryan Oakley

The problem is that you use tk.TK(), but you should use tk.Tk(), with small 'k'. Also, you should probably use self.master in __init__ function:

    def __init__(self, master):
        self.master = master
        self.master.title("Untitled - PyText")
        self.master.geometry("1200x700")

Then the link to a master object is preserved inside the pt object as pt.master. Hope that's helpful!
