TypeError: setText(self, str): too many arguments - CabbageMan - Jan-08-2020
My code is meant to multiply a number with pi, but when I run it I get the error: TypeError: setText(self, str): too many arguments
def pi(self):
if self.tall_input.text() == "" or self.tall_input.text() == 0:
self.tall_input.setText(format(math.pi), '.15g')
else:
self.tall_input.setText(format(float(self.tall_input.text()) * math.pi), '.15g')I get the error on both the 'if' and the 'else', so I'm guessing the problem is with the format() function, but I don't what.

You need to move
, '.15g' inside the call to the format function. As it is now, it's a parameter to setText, when I think you want it as a parameter to format. That is, format(math.pi, '.15g') and the same on line 5.

Thank you for the help!

setText() expects a string but you are passing it a tuple, a possible solution is:
self.label_2.setText(str(circles.shape))
